I bought two sets for my daughters bedroom and I will use them as their blankets. They are pretty when I lay them out in the bed and warm enough to use when they sleep. They were perfect until I noticed lint all over the bed from them. I decided to wash and hang dry them to reduce the lint and it was very messy- lint all over even after I washed them. There were actual chunks of lint on the blankets when I pulled them out of the washer. I love these but I wish they were less messy.
