When these noted groups of quilters combined their scraps into a string quilt, it may have been nothing special to them. Yet, the quilts dazzle the eyes of outsiders and art collectors who see them as wall art today. When the country was enduring the Great Depression, women combined their scraps into string quilts, which were seen as utilitarian and still are.
Traditionally quilting was a chore completed by women and they soon made the act a social event. They would gather in small or large groups and exchange materials to produce the most attractive quilts that they could. It was evident very quickly that this was a new form of art and its canvas was one of care and joy, as well as friendship.
Dragons, dinosaurs, tigers are the favourite animals for boys. Boys do like these animal-prints on their walls and their bed sheets. Nursery bedding usually has all these varieties that you can ask for. In case you do not want to know your baby's gender beforehand and you want to go in for a surprise you can always keep yourself to neutral colors yellow and green are gender-neutral and would look good in any kind of nursery.
