John Robshaw


A week ago or so my cousin Quinn said she was looking for some new bedding, she wanted something bright and bold. Actually, I think her exact words were: "I have a Marimekko duvet that is neutral but the walls at my new place are basically the same as my bedding so I want to vomit from the lack of color every day." I'm no expert on bedding, so I searched around a little to see if I could come up with anything. I checked out the usual suspects like Anthropologie and Dwell but nothing caught my eye. Finally I came across John Robshaw and loved what I saw. His bedding is created in India with all indigenous materials,it's all hand-printed and hand-stitched by local artisans. It looks great, bright and bold but not obnoxious. The national retailers are listed on the website, but for Quinn, you can get it a Jayson Home & Garden or at Bedside Manor.

I love John Robshaw bedding-- thr 400 threadcount is so comfortable and soft and the quality of the fabrics is outstanding! I especially love the colors and prints. At home I have paired the indigo striped sheets with the ink euro shams. Love it!
