These are ready to sew kits that make a wonderful baby quilt. They will go together quickly and easily with the directions we provide. There are 110 (10 each of 11 different pastel Hoffman Batiks) 6 1/2" Squares in these kits. They are all different Hoffman Bali Batiks. We make ours 5' X 5' (that's 10 squares by 10 squares {you will have 10 left over}). That way they can be used as a crib quilt or a clean place for a baby to play or nap. We have two different Minkee colors from benartex to choose from as a backing so you can make 'Boy' or 'Girl' quilts from the same squares depending on the backing color you choose. The Minkee we have chosen has little dots on it for a little more interest and texture for the lucky baby that gets this quilt. The Minkee is 60 inches (5 feet) wide - so it fits perfectly without any seams on the back of your quilt.
We have fallen in love with Minkee! It's so soft and warm it makes you want to stay under the quilt all day! We have been using this as backing on our Signature Squares quilts - and people are loving them! We can't keep them around the shop! We make ours 5' X 8' so they are perfect for two people sitting next to each other - or one person to cover up head-to-toe with some to spare! Not like an ordinary lap quilt that is never big enough! The Minkee is 100% polyester - and washes well. The fabric is 60 inches wide.
