Things Newborn Does Not Have

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.

Clothes to use: Start with clean items. Besides the baby clothes you can use bibs, caps, socks, Halloween costumes, blankets, linens, special curtains and nursery items.

When looking for a crib set, always look for one that is machine washable. The last thing any new parent needs is to have to run to the dry cleaners on a regular basis. You will also need a bumper to protect the babies head, and a quilt, blanket or comforter. A mobile is great to lull your child to sleep. Do not put stuffed animals in the crib, this can suffocate a baby.

Quilt Blanket Always use the low setting on your dryer. It is okay to hang your quilt outside for a short period of time, or you can spread it out flat to finish drying. Make sure it is completely dry before folding or storing.

String quilts made by women in Gee's Bend, Alabama, and Mid-western Amish communities, have become an art form. Their stringed blocks are often square in shape or close to it, with one above the other. Sometimes sashing strips divide the blocks. The Amish string quilts can look like stacks of small squares. This pattern is named Coins.

This means there are a variety of patterns, whether its a plain or single colour quilt, or printed and stitched patterns. There is no one single design or pattern that defines a quilt, but quilts are most commonly a single colour.

There are conflicting opinions about the need to prewash fabric. The choice is yours, but if you have any doubts about colorfastness (whether or not the color will bleed or wash out), test the fabric before adding it to your quilt.

A very important thing to notice when you are out buying nursery bedding are the different items that you get in a set. Usually a Quilt, blanket a bumper and a crib sheet are a part of the set. It is a good to have a fine cupboard where you can store the different sets and their components. You do not want to mix them or lose them at all.
