Use this scrappy Bear Paw patchwork quilt as a table topper or wallhanging. Lovely cotton fabrics in shades of blue and cream. A timeless combination that holds wide appeal.
Quilting is done by freemotion, which is a hand guided machine stitching technique, not computer. This means that your quilt will always be one of a kind as the artistry of the stitching is unique to each piece.
The size is 18 inches square (46 cm). I have not included a hanging sleeve, although I can add one if you like. There are many simple ways to hang quilts that you can find online.
This has not been washed; so a small amount of shrinkage will happen with the first washing, mostly with drying. This causes the crinkly look typical of handmade quilts. If you prefer the flatter look, simply omit the dryer and lay flat to air dry.
Will come packaged with care instructions.

Features
I always use quality fabrics and thread. In addition, I am conscientious about making sure I use a full seam allowance. I never leave fabrics holding together by a few threads. This ensures a quality, handmade item, that will withstand normal care and use for many years.
The inner batting layer is usually Pellon or Hobbs 80/20. Occasionally I use a bamboo batting.
Binding is always double thickness and attached by machine for added durability, with neat mitered corners.
The nice thing about quilts is that the more you use them the softer and more snuggly they become. Don’t be afraid to use them wherever you want to be. After all, we wear cotton fabrics everyday in our clothes… your quilt won’t fall apart before it gets well loved!
Care
Care
I have often washed my own quilts in with a regular wash load, with no regrets. However, it is still recommended to use a gentle cycle, mild soap and tumble drying on low heat. (** Note: I rarely prewash my fabrics. Expect a small amount of shrinkage on the first laundering.) It is the tumble drying that achieves the soft crinkly look that we associate with handmade quilts. If you prefer a flatter look, lay flat to air dry… do not dry in the dryer.
Remember that sunlight will fade any fabric, and your quilt is no exception. So; have a care when you leave it outside frequently or in a sunny window.
