Martha Washington's Choice Bedspread
Description
The Martha Washington’s Choice Bedspread is the most iconic terry bedspread ever produced by Bates. Released in 1940 under the name “George Washington’s Choice”, it was the first hobnail bedspread to ever be woven on a mechanical loom.
This vintage bedspread pattern is a replica of the handwoven candlewick bedspread that George Washington lovingly gave to his bride, Martha, on their wedding day. It quickly became a household favorite and continues to be our number one seller today.
The steadfast favorite has been in continuous production for over 80 years and during that time has also been labeled “America’s First” and simply “George Washington”.

Love the bedspread, this is my second one, my first I've had for almost 50 years! They are timeless and so historical feeling!
It’s the second bedspread that I have ordered from you! The first one, Queen size, and the second full size. I love Bates Martha Washington Choice Bedspread! They’re lovely and comfy!
My Grandmother had this bedspread for years. She recently passed on and I wanted to have a piece of her in my home. The quality and beauty of this bedspread is remarkable. From now on, all my beds will have Bates bedspreads on them.
Happy with our purchase. Quality is excellent. Good job
Beautiful, classic bedspread! Everything I hoped it would be!!
