Here is a beautiful baby quilt. The top is machine pieced with cotton fabric and the backing is cool microfiber. If it's warm in the house or if the baby is tucked into a warm onesie, the cool microfiber will be just the right amount of cover for the little one. The binding (or outer fabric that closes the quilt off) is also a delicate cotton. The quilt measures approximately 35" x 35", square. Washing instructions: wash with tap cool water and especially for red and orange fabrics, toss into the wash 2-3 Color Catcher sheets which are made by Shout and can be purchased on Amazon or at some grocery stores. Do not place the quilt in the dryer but lay flat to dry or put it on a clothes line outside.
