]]> This quilt features an adorable forest scene with animals and their young.  It is done is soft neutral colors and the quilting is stitched to enhance each feature individually from water to animals to trees.  The back of this quilt is a complementary fabric covered in cute fox cubs.

Truly a one of a kind quilt.

Why this quilt is so special

This quilt is hand-crafted with care and is finished using a unique free motion stitching technique. Free motion means a pair of hands, a sewing machine and a lot of fabric movement to create the artistic stitching design that makes each quilt one of a kind. Many of our quilts start life in their forever home as a decorative nursery accent. For that reason, the fabric has not been pre-washed and the quilt arrives with a bit of firmness. Snuggly will start to happen after the first wash and it will continue to grow softer with each wash and through each snuggle providing years of warmth and comfort.

A well-made quilt is like a fine wine, it truly gets better with age.

Made from premium quality 100% designer cotton fabric, Egyptian cotton thread & Warm and Natural cotton batting.

 

How big is the quilt?

Why this blanket will become a favorite

This oversized double layer flannel offers versatility for everyday use. From playtime to feeding time to snuggle time this blanket will do it all. In cooler weather it is ideal for the stroller or car seat and at 36″ square there is plenty of blanket to wrap and tuck around a baby or toddler.

The double layer of flannel in this blanket also provides a weighted warmth that acts as a sleep aid for baby, and the fact that it is all natural fiber helps to regulate body temperature resulting in a comfortable rest for baby (and hopefully mom).

This blanket is constructed with care and finished in a decorative stitch that adds a polished detail making it truly unique. It is sure to become a favorite in any nursery.

Why this gauze blanket is a must-have

Gauze blankets are a nursery need as they can work double duty for baby.
A cotton gauze is an ideal swaddling blanket because it tucks baby securely, yet it is breathable ensuring baby will not feel overheated.

The benefits of a properly swaddled baby include inhibiting the startle reflex, regulating body temperature and mimicking the feeling of the womb. This is all helpful to relax baby resulting in a comfortable sleep and assists in establishing proper sleeping patterns.

A gauze blanket is also a perfect nursing cover. It is light enough that baby can still feel the warmth of their mother without overheating, making them more relaxed and comfortable during feeding time.

We are sure this blanket will be a welcome addition to any nursery or diaper bag.
