Went shopping with Colin for a simple beige duvet cover for his bed at HomeGoods and there were none to be had. I think its college move in time and moms have wiped the place out.

We don't have the chain here in Canada, but I am a regular visitor to the shops in WA. Many years ago I bought most of a bolt of polished cotton from the shop on the Main Line and carried it with me from one posting to another until I finally found someone who could make beautiful slipcovers for me. I'm sure the border guards wonder about me as I come home from cross-border shopping trips with fabric for curtains, chairs, dust ruffles......Pondsidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02407539138546412482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-780745603109193534.post-53770798014339330622013-09-01T08:38:55.225-04:002013-09-01T08:38:55.225-04:00I don't know the matalesse pattern from Bloomi...I don't know the matalesse pattern from Bloomingdales, I'll ask Kris.<br />As for how much shrinkage will occure when washing a coverlet.....<br />I DON'T KNOW!

It encourages me that I don't have to spend out my entire 401k to have it look pretty. (Btw, I just got the sale flyer from Calico Corners.

I can't find it on Bloomingdale's site.<br /><br />* Could you give us an update on the Badass Bungalow? Did you sell it? I love looking at the before and afters from that house.
