FIRST TIME WASHING.. no matter how big or small the quilt you have purchased use a colour catcher (available in the laundry aisle of your supermarket) in case of colour run.
Wash in cold water on gentle cycle, light spin, preferably dry flat out of direct sunlight or tumble dry on low heat. All quilts will shrink slightly (1 - 3% is normal) due to being made from all cotton. This is normal.
BETWEEN WASHES you can gently vacuum to remove dust/crumbs etc
EMBROIDERED ITEMS please use a damp cloth over the embroidery design when ironing as the embroidery is made from polyester thread and can melt with a hot iron directly on top.
Any other questions please do ask.
