Cotton is quite possibly the best fabric on earth. It’s a natural fiber from a biodegradable and renewable source, and when it’s grown organically, it’s as close to perfection as it gets. Unlike synthetic fabrics that are made from cheap petroleum products, cotton breathes so it’s comfortable to use all year round and as a bonus, it wicks moisture. It’s so important to reduce the number of chemicals and toxins we expose our bodies to.
It’s so important to reduce the number of chemicals and toxins we expose our bodies so I buy organic cotton whenever I can. I recently acquired a beautiful cotton quilt from Anora Cotton. It’s created from three layers of cotton, so it’s lightweight and not bulky. The outer layers are hand blocked with natural dyes and carved teak wood blocks on organic cotton fabric. The filling isn’t made from pre-made batting, but from hand fluffed organic cotton.
Organic Cotton Bedding – Breathable, Comfortable, and Beautiful
The print is beautiful, and the hand-stitching is a fabulous touch. It’s reversible with a tiny print on one side and a more open print on the other. The hand blocked border and coordinating fabric are perfect for a country cottage look and as a bonus, the pattern matches my Lands’ End striped sheets beautifully. It feels luxurious, and we love using it to wrap up on the couch or to throw over ourselves when were sitting out late at night on the patio.
While the quilt is eco-friendly, the fact that it’s dry clean only has me a bit worried. I have moved away from dry cleaning because of the chemicals, and I won’t be taking this quilt there anytime soon. Rather I’ll try the steam option on my washer or a super short wash and then very gentle dry. It’s worth it to me to risk shrinking the quilt or ruining the pattern rather than expose myself to dry cleaning chemicals.
Anora Cotton offers quilts, comforters, bedsheets, throws, and accent pillow covers. They stock plenty of floral prints in tons of great colors.

The Country Chic quilt is so pretty. So simple yet the colors seem really relaxing…..and I love how it’s organic!
This Cottage Chic Reversible Comforter looks so comfortable and soft. I would love a new comforter to change up my room.
This is a great pattern. I love the colors it would look amazing in my room.
I made own quilt a few years ago with similar colors. These look better than how mine came out though!
My mother is an expert quilter. I on the other hand can’t cut or sew straight so quilting is not my passion for sure.
This looks incredibly cozy and unique. Very pretty! I love the paisley.
I’m always drawn to paisley!
What a beautiful design. Reminds me of something my grandmother would make. I’d love to have that on my bed.
Looks so pretty and I bet since its organic, it’s super soft.
That’s such a pretty design. I’ve never had bedding with organic cotton before.
I love these organic bedding sets coming out now! I cannot wait until we move so I can get some for myself!
I love cotton quilts. I wish it was machine washable too. But then again, I washed and dried a quilt and had major shrinkage – so now I am extra careful with the dryer.
I’m a little nervous for sure, but there’s no way I’m dry cleaning it. I’d rather have it shrink to a twin size first!
I love the classic look of this bedding! What a beautiful choice
That is so pretty. I love how comfy it looks. It looks liek something I would see in a bed and breakfast.
So pretty! I love cotton for so many different things and love how it looks and feels on a bed. This pattern is gorgeous.
That is so gorgeous! I love the color, and I love that old-time feel. It’s such a classic look.
