And such a beautiful keepsake.

So important for little kids

Simply stunning. Such a lovely family heirloom to pass down through the generations and maybe even add to along the way, making more memories

Thanks for a great project. Easily achievable with 2 little kids

what a lovely idea for kids and adults

Way beyond my abilities but this is beautiful

Babies love the different textures

I adore making quilts – such a terrific creative outlet!

Great way for them to learn different textures

That looks awesome might try a small one. Thankyou

Started on this. Hope to have for Christmas. Thanks for the idea.

The baby quilt would make a wonderful present!

Beautiful project. A special blanket keepsake. Thank you

  It is just gorgeous, great to have for all babies

A sensory quilt for babies to big kids. Cot sized quilt

Material

60cm each of ten of different textured fleece fabric, I use two different colour/patterns of the same texture
1m x 1.4 cotton wadding, use the thinner stuff not polyester
1.2m x 1.5m cotton, flannel anything for backing
1 quilters square 10″
1 cutting mat
1 rotary cutter
1 packet sewing pins
1 packet safety pins
Method

Cut the fleece fabric into ten inch squares you need two squares of each fabric
Set out the design of your quilt, be creative I try not to get the same textures near each other. Pin rows together, not the entire thing
Sew with 1/4 inch seams until all rows are complete, then sew the rows together to make the quilt. Look at the picture.
place top of quilt onto the wadding cut to size if it a little shorter, pin it with safety pins to keep in place. Then place onto the backing there will be overflow of the backing don’t trim it.
Now turn the sides of the backing to give the quilt a border (please note the pictured quilt hasn't been backed) pin it into place. Sew the border into place.
Then stitch in the ditch, sew alone the rows of squares. And then trim off any threads and its done!

This is a great idea. I wish I had one for my daughter when she was a baby!
