The 10 best quilts for babies and children
DESIGN, Decoration, Must haves, SHOPPING
These thick beautiful blankets make perfect play mats and / or bed covers. A quilt is typically done with three layers: the top fabric or quilt top, batting or insulating material and backing material.
The key component that defines a quilt is the stitches holding the three layers together-the quilting. And very often the pattern of the stitching makes your quilt decorative and special.
Quilts have a long history and various traditions and yet they are a must-have for every household until today.
And especially when you have children, because they make the best play or changing mats and with the variety of designs you can be sure to find one that both you and your baby will love.
Selected by Luna, here are the best quilts for babies and children. Our favorites for you:
