Synopsis

Kids can interact with these fabulous fabric creations!

These delightful quilts aren't made just for display--they're made for play! Children will love acting out their own funny, dramatic, or action-packed stories with the dolls, animals, and other movable pieces featured in these wonderfully whimsical quilts.

· Choose from five quilts for kids ages three and up, including an animal train, a sleepover picnic, a flight to the moon, and a pirate ship

· Make small, stuffed toys that fit into quilt pockets and attach with buttons and elastic loops; toy patterns include a farm boy and girl, a lion, an elephant, a spaceship, and a scarecrow

· Construct quilts easily with quick-piecing techniques and add sparkle with fun embellishments such as beads, buttons, ribbons, and decorative trims

Pack up these portable quilts for a trip, spread them out at a slumber party, or display them on a wall or bed for everyday fun--there are no limits to how these play quilts can be made, used, and loved!
