Size matters with a super king size bed

So, you have bought your super king size bed and it fits perfectly in your room, what next? Add some beautiful bed linen and a luxurious custom made quilted king size bedspread, made by Cush Cush and your bed will be complete!

The next stage is how to set about choosing an extra-large quilted bedspread that will enhance both the room and feature as the main focal point. With such a large size bed it is important to get the style and the size of your quilt right first time. After all, you’ll want to showcase the bed, rather than it being an eye-sore!

Styling a super king size bed

Begin by measuring the bed to calculate the sizing correctly – our ‘how to measure’ guide will help you to accomplish this. Next, take inspiration from your décor to achieve a look that you’ll love. Remember it’s something that you want to enjoy for many months / years to come, so getting the styling right, early on, is important.

Going Bold and dramatic

Would you like the super king size quilted bedspread to be the main feature of the room? If so, then be bold and dramatic with a choice of fabric which will ensure the bed stands out as a feature. Choosing a vibrant pattern or going for a contrasting colour in comparison to the rest of the room’s décor will achieve this. Furthermore, you can choose a contrasting quilting pattern or request Cush Cush to trace around the fabric design to embellish the quilt further.


Going subtle and sophisticated

Alternatively, if you are looking for something a little more subtle and sophisticated then choose a plain pattern and a single colour fabric. Something that is closer in the colour tone of the décor, as this will add a hint of an accent without overpowering the room. Furthermore, you can choose a quilting pattern which will lift the fabric and add that extra touch of elegance.

Accessorising

Don’t forget that you can also add furnishings to the room. Choose contrasting patterns to layer up the interior or pick out specific colours with plain fabrics to compliment the design. By additionally commissioning roman blinds and cushions made by Cush Cush, these can be regularly updated to suit a change in seasonal style or mood without having to revamp the whole room.

Finally, as 2021 comes to an end, this is the time of year to take great advantage of the fabric sales. Currently there are lots of discounts available as many suppliers look to bring in new lines and fashionable styles for 2022. Here at Cush Cush we can quilt your fabric of choice through our super king size and king size quilted bedspreads manufacturing facility. Just find a fabric that you like and send us the size of your super king size / king size bed and we’ll do the rest. To find out more about ‘quilt your own fabric’ or other custom quilted bedspread ideas, please contact us or see our quilts & throws website for more details.

Handmade Roman Blinds add a touch of elegance this winter

Handmade roman blinds by Cush Cush

Our handmade roman blinds bring a classic look to windows of all sizes. They are a wonderful feature for any window and look wonderful when they are open and layered or frame the window when they are closed and down.

Not only do our handmade roman blinds come with a blackout interline, which provides an energy efficient thermal layer to block the cold from the window and hold warmth within the room. The blinds are also made with a chain to compliment other room hardware finishes and come in a choice of three colours – white, chrome or gold.

Our beautiful range of fabrics are available in many colour swatches and pattern designs depending on the style of your interior and to suit your colour preference. Choose from classic shades to vibrant tones – please click here to request a fabric sample.

Alternatively, if you have a colour or style in mind and would prefer to supply your own fabric, to receive a quote, please let us know the width of the window and the drop, by filling out further information through our online form.

Customised Quilts and Throws through the seasons

As we drift from summer into the autumn season, now is the time to begin thinking about how we can re-modernise our bedrooms by changing our customised quilts and throws ready to reflect the change in season.

If you have been used to a light summer king size quilted throw over the last few months, it may be time for a change! With the evenings getting cooler, snuggling under a thicker custom quilted throw draped over your bed will be perfect for those cosy evenings in. Here at Cush, Cush we use a 5oz medium thickness wadding for all our customised quilts and throws but use different fabrics to adjust the thickness and the texture of the final piece depending on our customer’s requirements.

For spring / summer customised quilts and throws, we recommend a lighter fabric – a silk which is light weight is perfect! Choose a silk fabric in lighter soft pastel shades, to offer a light yet chick look for your bedroom throughout the summer.  In contrast, during the autumn and winter months, we would recommend a heavier fabric such as a soft velvet which is thick and luxurious. Why not choose your velvet in a deeper or darker colour shade to reflect the autumn and winter seasons?

Using Bespoke Quilting to create a room feature

Featuring bespoke quilting in your bedroom really does offer a touch of glam. However, according to appartmenttherapy.com, “choosing the right fabric can be tricky, especially when there are so many to choose from”.

Finding inspiration for a bespoke quilted bedspread or a throw design can come from a variety of sources within the interior space. Here at Cush Cush, our design team recommends looking at the room in its whole entirety. When considering bespoke quilting, pick out a one-off feature as the basis of the design or select a consistent pattern which runs as a theme throughout the room interior. The quilting design could be inspired from a pattern in a wallpaper, a feature cushion positioned on the bed or chair, or ultimately whereby a pattern is traced around throughout the design of the bedspread fabric.

Bespoke quilting combines a variety of quilted patterns depending on the fabric pattern. Fabrics which are printed using floral and foliage or ditsy designs and those that use animal or Chinese motifs work well with this technique. So do, repetitive textile designs such as geometrical, damask, fleur-de-lis and brocade fabric.

Whether simple or complex, creating a uniquely designed feature quilt by applying bespoke quilting will lift the shape of the quilt and enhance its grandeur whilst creating a prominent feature within the room, to really make a difference.

Redesigning a bedroom with a super king quilted bedspread

If you are thinking of re-designing your bedroom with new décor or looking to enhance the existing style of the room, then using the bed as a focal point and adding a super king quilted bedspread can really make a statement to the interior.

“The bed will be the superstar that is showcased, and will draw the eye to the focal wall, tying everything together in absolute splendour to make your room feel luxurious, restful and a place you want to be in.” according to www.impressiveinteriordesign.com.

Create a Feature Wall – Consider which wall within the bedroom, the bed will be best positioned against. Make it a feature wall by adding a contrasting wallpaper, a vibrant colour or texture.

Consider the Colour Scheme – Think about the colour scheme throughout the room. Which colours inspire you or make you feel relaxed. Will you add colour throughout the room or keep it neutral and add accent features instead?
