"Flouncy bouncy" is how we refer to this luxurious merino wool throw blanket in the barn before asking anyone interested to wrap it around their shoulders. Being machine washable and so full of dynamic color, this may be the most exciting textile in anyone's home.

Wrap yourself in a cloud of color. Betsy Leighton of Bowerbird Studio has brought her beautiful quilt blocks into the macro, in merino! The art of paper piecing quilting, also called fussy cutting, is just that, meticulous. This blanket features a digital design modeled after one of Betsy's intricate quilt blocks. Bold red fruit looks juicy and bright against teal and soft blue leaves with pink accents and an ecru backdrop.

Heavy yet breathable, this supple blanket is also hypoallergenic and wonderfully soft. Whether it's to curl up on the couch for movie night or to add some extra warmth in bed, this large throw is as versatile as it is beautiful.

Made in a textile mill in New York, it's worth noting that even the backside of this cozy decor accessory represents a gorgeous example of textiles met with color. To finish the blanket, threads are woven in a precise color pattern to create a homogenous appearance that act as the perfect complement to the design up front.

After earning a MFA degree from Maryland Institute College of Art, Betsy Leighton spent her professional career moving across Baltimore’s educational spectrum, from art teacher to Director, Principal, and eventually Associate Head of School. Once their children were grown, Betsy and her husband moved to New Harbor to start a new chapter - one filled with color, creativity, and salt air.

Taking inspiration from the natural world, Betsy returned to her artistic roots to start Bowerbird Studio. Playing with color, pattern and texture and finding new and interesting fabrics, her creations are meant to be loved and enjoyed daily.

From the Artist:

My hope is to brighten our lives with color and pattern and to help us discover the beauty and joy within our daily routines.
