First, let me say the quality of these bedspreads are truly awesome! Second, I try to buy Made in America products because I want to support existing US companies. I started looking locally for new bedding, but was unable to find anything that had not been imported. So, I started searching on line to see my options. Upon reading the story behind Bates Mill Store, I knew I didn’t need to look any further. I now have 3 bedding sets, 2 Cape Cods, and 1 Lisa’s Choice. I love these bedspreads, and can’t imagine buying from anywhere else.
