The best way to make over your bedroom for Spring: a new quilt cover!

Sponsored by Manchester Collection

If a change of season isn’t a good excuse to change things around at home then I don’t know what is. I mean, I’m not saying you need an excuse, but if you were looking for one, Spring is it! And the easiest way to change up the look of your bedroom in particular, is with a fresh quilt cover set.

Manchester Collection have a huge range for every taste (and also a huge sale at the moment) so I picked my top 10 for you, whether you love patterned or plain, classic or relaxed.

Cascade Quilt Cover Set

There are two types of quilt cover people in the world: patterned and plain! If you fall into the former then this has to be the epitome of a spring quilt cover for a bit of a seasonal switch up!

Amari White Quilt Cover Set

If you don’t really want to commit to pattern but you don’t want plain either, then here is your happy medium! I’d also bet this doesn’t need ironing! You can make this yours by adding your choice of cushions and a throw or just enjoy that all-white look with plenty of texture. A great purchase if you ask us! It also comes in pale pink and grey.

Dawson Quilt Cover Set

Spring florals don’t have to be pink and this blue design will give your bedroom a super fresh look too.

Ritz 1000TC Embroidered White with Quilt Cover Set

If you love that luxury hotel bed look and feel, this is the one for you and it comes with a choice of contrasting navy, mocha, black, navy or silver embroidery on the white cotton base.

Soho 1000 Thread Count Quilt Cover Set Blush

If you love the crisp, cool feel of hotel bed linen but want something a little plainer, this is made of long staple cotton in a buttery smooth weave. 5-star luxury in your home! This comes in eight colours and co-ordinating sheets and accessories are also available.

Jax Chunky Waffle Shadow Quilt Cover Set

Waffle’s another classic choice but I love the extra texture of this particular design. And the green is a lovely colour for spring but it also comes in even more classic white, a pale bright blue, neutral linen, charcoal and even a floral design. Bonus points for NO IRONING REQUIRED!

Remy Quilt Cover Set

I love the subtle dusty pale pink of this one, which is quite a traditional jacquard brought right up to date with the colour. It definitely says Spring to me!

Vintage Washed Linen Quilt Cover Set

They do say once you’ve slept on linen you’ll never go back and I personally love how it gets softer with each wash, it goes with everything, it looks deliberately a bit creased (what’s an iron again?!) and of course it’s all natural and breathable and great for all seasons. This comes in silver (pictured), white, linen and charcoal and is stonewashed. A great neutral basic, you can let it shine on its own or layer it up with cushions, throws and contrasting sheets.

Jersey Quilt Cover Set

As soft as your favourite t-shirt, this set is a lovely, relaxed choice and feels lovely on your skin. We also like the hidden zip. So popular it comes in eight colour ways!

Medici White Bedspread

Happy with your existing quilt cover but want to add a layer or replace the doona entirely with something more lightweight for summer? You can’t go past this pretty white coverlet!

Sponsored by Manchester Collection

We love any excuse to refresh the look of our homes and the change in seasons is just the ticket! These colder mornings make me want to press snooze too many times and I’m definitely heading to bed earlier to snuggle up with a book (or let’s be honest, Netflix on my laptop) so it’s lovely to have some nice linen that looks and feels good.

Online retailer Manchester Collection have some gorgeous exclusive designs at great prices. Offering contemporary as well as classic (think luxe hotel room) styles, they work directly with manufacturers abroad to bring on trend home fashion to you, cutting out the middlemen and passing on the savings. Being a smaller retailer has enabled them to develop relationships with their customers and capture feedback on what they really want.

Since 1999, Manchester Collection buyers have been going to Europe to discover unique home textile products that customers couldn’t find elsewhere, all at affordable prices.

Here’s a few of our favourite quilt covers from their current range!

Just because it’s autumn doesn’t mean it can’t be springtime in the bedroom! How fresh is the Aria Quilt Cover Set?! It’s 100% cotton and starts from just $89.95.

Florals not your thing? Check out the ever popular palm design of the Nassau Quilt Cover Set. With shades of blue and green on a white background, it’s a great way to add a little colour to a more neutral room without going out of your comfort zone. Also from $89.95 for double size (all sets come with two pillowcases).

We’ve been reporting on the popularity of green a lot lately, and this Monte Quilt Cover Set is a great example. Also 400 thread count cotton, you could choose any of the accent colours for coordinating cushions and throws.

Looking for a more unisex design? The Merrit Quilt Cover Set with its timeless stripes is a great choice.

You can also choose from the popular Logan and Mason quilt covers like this classic Trista design in all white with just enough texture to keep things interesting!
