All About Buying A Baby Quilt

The relationship between parents and newborn is very deep, especially with the mom as she conceives the baby for nine months in her womb. Parents like to buy all the baby items and baby wear available in the market. They like to see their baby look cute and comfortable.

The cloths for newborn should be comfortable and safe. The same applies to baby crib and bedding. Long, uninterrupted sleep is very important for baby’s sound health. Comfortable bedding plays a vital role in achieving this target.

But baby quilts are not just for the nursery. They are just as home on the floor of playpen or dragged around during playtime, so serving many purposes. Baby quilts make unique gifts for baby girls and baby boys. A perfect baby quilt plays an important role in a nursery, since everyone’s eyes are drawn to the crib as they enter the room. Your newborn will look pretty in photographs as baby quilt is the most photographed items during the toddler’s years. So a carefully selected beautiful quilt is an asset for your newborn.

Since your baby will be spending over 60% of its first year sleeping, you should put much importance on finding the perfect quilt fabric. You must take all care to select the perfect material for your baby quilt. Baby quilts made with polyester or acrylic, which are plastics, can irritate your baby’s sensitive skin and eyes.

Quilts for babies can come in a wide range of color and fabric choices, patterns and designs. Beautiful baby quilts come in all sizes and can be bought in a pair for twins or coordinated patterns and colors to allow for the frequent change that is often requited with a baby warm. Designed specially for the infants, these quilts keep the child warm, comfortable and cozy with a quilt top that is easily washable. Natural cotton, fleece and wool are the most popular materials for baby quilts. Quilts can be matched to the color of walls of your nursery or the baby's bedding or may conform to the chosen theme for the baby's room.

Quilts custom-sized to fit the baby's crib, bassinets, cradles and beds are available. Quilts may also be used as fun ways to teach different things to your toddler such as colors, name of animals, flowers and fruits and even alphabets. Hand-quilted baby quilts with sleeves for wall hanging rod look much like wall hangings and accents to the room décor when hung on the wall to dry. Trims, tassels and borders to the quilts look beautiful but one should make sure that they cannot be pulled out easily. Stitches should be short and close enough to avoid trapping the babies' fingers and there should be no loose thread on the edges for the baby to pull.
