Green and Red Suzani Coverlet

suzani quilt green Green and Red Suzani Coverlet

Last night I spotted this suzani coverlet on uzbek-craft.com. I love the green with the red accents. Maybe for my bedroom? Is it too much pattern? Images of the coverlet folded up at the bottom of my bed appeared in my dreams all night. If I love something this much I should just buy it, right?

I have two sides of my decorating personality: rustic/minimal vs. floral patterns covering every inch. I need to find a way for these too styles to reconcile. Colorful floral textiles are like crack that make me forget all my plans and click “buy it now” without even a thinking twice of the consciousness. Check out more suzani pillows and coverlets on uzbek-craft.com.

    Isn’t it funny how these things work their way into your dreams? I dream about beautiful Moroccan wedding blankets at the foot of my bed, but we have cats and I know it would get destroyed. Sigh. I think this Suzani would be lovely at the foot of your bed – so I say go for it!

    This one is very different than the ones I have seen.
    I really enjoy the palette.

    this is BEAUTIFUL. I think it would be lovely in a rustic-minimal room, too.
