Ready to find out the winner of our MaryJane’s Home chenille bedspread?
I’m dreaming of …
not a white Christmas (thank goodness, it’s summer!), but our winner and her choice of a white, sage, blue, or ecru bedspread. I picked our winner from atop a chenille pillow.
And it’s Barbara Torres!
Congratulations, Barbara!

“My favorite memory of my grandmother was spending the night on Fridays. She would share with me all her special treasures she had in her top dresser drawer. She had a silver brush and comb, lots of costume jewelry, scarves, and embroidered pillowcases.
I would try on the jewelry and scarves. I am now the proud owner of two of her scarves. We would watch television and she would make me a root beer float in a tin mug. She always said the tin mug kept it colder. I would brush her hair and she would give me a dime. I slept in the big bed in the guest room and it had a white chenille bedspread with pink flowers.
My grandmother passed away last year at the age of 103. I miss her a lot, but treasure the times we spent together.”
Barbara, keep your eyes on your inbox for an e-mail arriving soon from the farm!
Barbara, what a fabulous gift for remembering your Grandmother! wouldn’t she be so excited for you today? Congratulations!!
What wonderful memories! Congrats Barbara! I bought the entire set in Ecru and LOVE it! It not only gives the room a touch of nostalgia but a really romantic feel. My husband said its not only pretty, but reminds him of where we stay at Disney World. Enjoy!
I can’t believe I won the bedspread. It will be a reminder of my grandma and how blessed I was to have her in my life.

It couldn’t have gone for a lovelier memory – cherish it in your grandmother’s memory. Congratulations, and hope you are wearing the scarf!! xo
Congrats Barb! Chenille bedspreads bring back memories for me also. I use to take my naps on my Mom’s. I would wake up with the imprints on my cheek. When I grew up a friend made a jacket out of an older spread and I always thought it was the coolest
Oh Barbara, you are richly blessed. Chenille is like heaven. It is a lovely bedspread. Little girl memories are so precious. Your Grandmother would have loved it, so make a pillow from one of her items and join today with yesterday.
