I don’t shout out a lot of products because – one – there are too many
damn products and – two – because I don’t get that excited about that many
products.
I do however have a major soft spot for linens, especially ones that are
majorly soft and – bonus – majorly cool. It’s that double whammy that got me
hooked on Brooklinen.
They use single-ply, long-staple Egyptian
Cotton, sewn on the best finishing machines in the business, making the sheets
as soft and smooth and delicious as possible. And they look SO good on the bed.
Don’t ask me why. But something about the way they hang makes our bed look
super cozy. And it is!
This summer
they introduced a limited edition of lightweight quilts. They made 100 and sold
out in basically an instant. I didn’t get my hands on one. But I have a second
chance now. Starting today, August 31, they are releasing a second batch. Hence
my post today!
It’ll be another
small batch of only 100 of the super soft and equally light handmade quilts. They
are 100% organic
cotton, fill and shell and are handmade by an artisan couple in India, taking
seven full days to make. They are assembled and embroidered by hand in a
“kantha,” which is a traditional Indian stitch. The quilts are lovingly
named “Graham” and the “Lorimer.”
Brooklinen’s founders, Vicki and Rich, think of them as “an ode to the
architecture and design of Amsterdam.” The two made a pilgrimage there last
summer for inspiration.
The
pair also make a down pillow. I haven’t checked it out yet. But if they are
anything like the sheets, I’m sure they’re dreamy!
Brooklinen is definitely my go-to linen company now. They represent everything I like when it comes to style and quality and feel!
Note: Brooklinen graciously sent me sheets to test out.
