Minky Couture was established in 2009. Our owner, Sandi Sumner Hendry, started by giving fun, unique, and functional gifts to friends and family members. The blankets she gave were an instant hit. Universally loved and used daily, she decided to do a little more research on these soft, cuddly blankets. In doing so, she discovered the wonderful world of minky fabric. She started designing her own blankets, using different combinations of fabrics. Each blanket was unique, created specifically for the recipient. Family and friends started asking if they could purchase the blankets to give to their own loved ones, and Minky Couture was born. The majority of our blankets are made right here in the USA. They are individually sewn by experienced and talented seamstresses who give love and detailed attention to each blanket. One of Sandi's goals in creating the company was to help her local community by providing opportunities for stay at home moms to supplement their income during difficult economic times. We are happy to say that this goal has been achieved, and the result is a collection of beautiful blankets. Minky Couture is proud to donate to hundreds of charity events and auctions held throughout the state of Utah. Not only do we donate locally, but through the USA. Our blankets give comfort and love to many who are facing challenges and struggles. We are blessed and proud to help others.
