How to Choose the Right Quilt for Baby
There are many things to think about when buying the perfect quilt for your little one.
Material
Soft and breathable fabrics like cotton offer the ultimate comfort for your baby's delicate skin. This type of fabric is also hypoallergenic, meaning it can minimise irritation, which is absolutely essential for babies. Their skin is still delicate and may be prone to rashes, so a soft, gentle fabric is a must.
Our baby quilts enjoy the best of both cotton and linen, using a 55% Linen 45% Cotton blend that is OEKO-TEX® certified. This fabric has been rigorously tested for harmful substances, ensuring utmost safety and peace of mind. It is woven with luxurious European linen fiber and each quilt contains a 100% polyester batting fill.
Size
Size does matter when determining how you are going to use the quilt. For a crib quilt, you will want to choose a size that fits the dimensions of the crib. For a play mat or newborn quilt, a smaller size may be more practical.
Easy of Care
Babies can be a little messy, as we all know! That's why machine-washable fabrics are a lifesaver, especially with the inevitable spills and stains that will come.
Benefits of Baby Quilts
Baby quilts offer a variety of benefits… beyond just being adorable!
Soft and Swaddle-able
High-quality quilts provide a soft and cuddly surface for your little one. Smaller quilts can also be used for swaddling newborns to promote feelings of comfort and better sleep.
Versatile and Easy to Care For
You can also use baby quilts as a car seat cover, a stroller blanket, a changing mat, or a playmat. They are also made from durable and comfortable machine-washable fabrics, which are easy to keep clean.
Development and Stimulation
Many baby quilts feature bright colors, patterns, and textures, like our Lita/Cockatoo - Linen Quilted Blanket. This can stimulate your baby's developing vision and sense of touch. It's also an excellent surface for tummy time, which is great for encouraging baby to strengthen their neck and back muscles.
FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
What size should a baby quilt be?
The ideal size depends on the baby and how you plan to use it. But in general, 36" x 36" is the sweet spot for many quilts. This particular size is not too small for newborns to enjoy as a cuddle blanket or playmat, and is not too large to be cumbersome.
Can I use a baby quilt as a playmat?
Absolutely! Thanks to its soft and comfortable, cushioned surface, a baby quilt can be a perfect playmat, especially for tummy time.
Can I machine wash my baby quilt?
You can machine wash your baby quilt with cold water on a gentle cycle. But to ensure the softness and longevity of the quilt, make sure you use a mild or baby-friendly detergent. Also, do not dry clean; line dry in the shade instead.
