Quilting is a wonderful art form with many different designs. We've included a gallery of some of the designs we did. The quilts are interlined and washable, though, as they are handmade, it's best not to overwash them. The back of the quilts are generally floral print cotton.
The photos are not necessarily perfectly straight because the quilts and playmats are made of cotton and I have photographed them by hanging them up. Hopefully these will give you a good idea of what they look like.
