I first saw a picture of Betsy Leighton’s “Soleil” blanket in an issue of Decor Maine magazine. I knew I had to have one and immediately reached out to Betsy. It did not disappoint! It is gorgeous and cozy and will brighten even the darkest days! I fully recommend.

In 2023 I received one of the gorgeous Bowerbird Studio Italian merino wool throw blankets as a Christmas gift. So this year I spread the cheer and gave blankets to two friends!

Betsy Leighton's passion for color and pattern is evident in her creations. Inspired by her travels and life on the coast, she meticulously replicates intricate patterns, bringing a sense of order and beauty to her designs. Each piece is a testament to her skill and artistry. Like warm hugs and a loving embrace, Betsy's blankets envelop the wearer in comfort and style. The carefully chosen colors draw the eye, inviting the viewer to appreciate the natural world's details and beauty. You will love your Bowerbird Studio blankets and scarves--and want to give one as a gift to everyone you love.

Like the literary heroine Miss Rumphius, Bowerbird Studio spreads beauty throughout the world. My mother keeps her “Midnight” blanket on her bed year round so she can see it every day. My daughter reaches for her “Sunburst” blanket when she wants to read. And my college roommate adores her colorful, gorgeous, and cozy “Poppy” blanket. The scarves are equally amazing. Bowerbird Studio’s stunningly beautiful blankets and scarves are so well made that I firmly believe that one day they will be cherished family heirlooms. Customer service is top-notch too. The blankets and scarves have always arrived promptly in lovely, secure packaging, along with a sweet handwritten note. Highly recommend!

I love Bowerbird Studio blankets. The bright colors, soft merino wool, the thoughtful, fun, and unexpected graphic patterns—well, I can’t get enough. While I have three, I don’t plan to stop there. I may be stuck in repeat in the shortest of winters in southern California, but I still carry east coast winters and the need for blankets with me. Thank you, Betsy, for making art that is functional and forever. Like the quilts my grandmother made and the lavender plaid wool blanket my father picked out for me when I was young, your blankets are heirlooms I look forward to passing down to my children.

What could be better? Betsy’s remarkable color sense and craftsmanship, familiar to those of us lucky enough to own her aprons and pillows, has scaled way up, emerging as these gloriously warm and cozy throws.

This blanket is heavenly. So, so soft and oh, so warm—it almost makes me yearn for cold weather. And when not in use, the blanket adds such beauty to my room. The blanket is extraordinarily well made with obvious attention to detail. The hardest decision was selecting from Betsy’s gorgeous and happy designs. Thank you, Betsy and Bowerbird Studio!

I recently spent a few lovely hours under one of Betsy Leighton’s merino wool blankets. Imagine this...a cozy chair next to the wood fire, a freshly brewed cup of coffee, and a compelling mystery novel, snuggled under the most luxurious throw blanket. Doesn’t everyone need this kind of mini-retreat? The colorful blanket was the best part...a piece of exquisite art and a wrap of unsurpassed softness. You have to feel it to believe it.

These blankets are amazing. There is nothing comparable available today. The designs are unique and celebratory, yet they are soft and perfect for an early morning, or later with a cup of tea, or for taking a walk.

These throw blankets are a spectacular marriage of Betsy’s beautiful designs with the softest Italian merino wool. They make a wonderful and unique gift for a wedding, anniversary, special birthday, or a treat for yourself.

It’s the best luxury blanket available. It both looks beautiful—it’s artfully designed—-and makes you feel cozy and relaxed. I tell my friends to buy one as a gift and one for themselves before they’re sold out.
