Made in USA Bedding: Sheets, Blankets and Pillows

Faribault Mill has woven wool in Faribault, Minnesota, since 1865, and the listing says the blanket is manufactured in the USA at that mill. Pure & Simple is its plainest bed blanket: 100% wool, one solid color, no pattern to date it.

Bone White sits well under a white or natural duvet and folds neatly at the foot of the bed. The listing says it is machine washable, which is unusual for a wool blanket and saves a trip to the cleaner, though a gentle cycle and air drying will keep it in shape longer.

Skip it if wool against bare skin bothers you; use it over a sheet and under a duvet, or choose the cotton quilt below.

The catch. Wool needs protecting from moths when stored for the summer.

Pendleton has woven blankets at its mill in Pendleton, Oregon, since 1909 and at Washougal, Washington, since 1912. The Eco-Wise blanket's listing says, simply, made in the USA. It is 100% wool, napped for a soft surface and bound with a whipstitched edge.

The full/queen measures 90 by 96 inches and weighs about 5 pounds, so it is a real winter blanket rather than a layer. Eco-Wise is Pendleton's machine-washable wool, and the listing says it softens with laundering.

Not everything with the Pendleton label is made in America, so check each listing. For this blanket the claim is on the page. Skip it if you sleep warm; it is a lot of wool.

The catch. Heavy and warm; too much for a mild climate or a warm sleeper.

A quilt coverlet does the work of a light blanket and a bedspread in one. Red Land's is 100% cotton inside and out, the cotton from its North Alabama farm, and the listing says it is manufactured entirely in the USA, hand-cut and sewn.

It suits the months when a duvet is too warm, and layers under one in winter. It is machine washable and dryable, which matters for a cover that sits on top of the bed.

Skip it if you want real winter warmth on its own; for that, one of the wool blankets above does more.

The catch. About the price of a wool blanket for considerably less warmth.

American-made pillows are harder to find than they should be, and most claims are about where the pillow is sewn and filled. This one is typical, and more candid than most. The title says Made in USA; the listing explains that the pillows are filled and finished in the maker's US factory, and notes that only this product in its range is made in the USA.

What it does not say is where the goose feathers, down and cotton shell come from. Under the FTC standard, a pillow with imported fill and fabric would call for a qualified claim, so we list it as filled and finished here rather than all-American.

The fill is 85% goose feather and 15% down in a 100% cotton downproof shell, giving medium support for back and side sleepers. It is machine washable at low temperature. Skip it if you want an all-down pillow or one whose every component is documented.

The catch. The origin of the feathers and fabric is not stated, so this is not an all-American pillow in the FTC's sense.
