A queen size quilt is like a blanket which fits just as the duvet cover with a somewhat informal look.
Quilt sets come in various designs, materials and colours.
As much caution is required while buying them, the same level of precaution is needed for their cleaning.
Cleaning quilts that are of queen size would be a massive task.
One problem is that these if not washed or cleaned then their chances to get ruined or stained gets higher.
So, it requires much attention to keep them in good form to use them for several years.
As far as using a detergent is concerned do not go for the type that is used for casual wears as it would be harsh and fade the colour.
Instead go to craft, sewing or fabric stores where one would easily get mild washing powders made especially for delicate fabrics.
These days' liquid detergents which are very gentle on fabrics are easily available in supermarkets as well.
Make sure to set the washing machine accurately as per the requirement.
The bed cover gets very heavy when it is wet because it is made up of three layers so it will also need lot of physical effort.
While washing a duvet make certain that the machine has enough space so that it can move comfortably.
Do not make the mistake to use hot water for washing a quilt.
It will completely fade the colour.
Lukewarm water would be perfect to run on gentle cycle.
As the soap would not get washed out just in one cycle, so rinse the duvet again so that soap would come out and repeat this until soap gets removed completely.
Drying process is also not a big mess.
With such a heavy weight, it would not be possible for one to put it right into the dryer.
When quilters are asked about drying methods one will discover a vast number of them are there.
A simple method that one should follow is to spread the queen size quilt sets flat so that the extra water gets evaporated.
Then place it on dry air without any heat exposure.
The bedding will be dried soon, while others also go for flat drying.
All these precautions would be necessary so that stitches do not get damaged.
In case one opts for air dry method it must be kept in mind that it quilt is spread in air so that all areas can be dried out.
Driers at big laundries are considered safe as they have the capacity to carry very heavy load.
Quilts are very delicate and thus require proper cleaning as any carelessness can have detrimental effect.
