“Use It and Love It” Quilt Care - Don't Be Afraid to Wash It!

As a 4th generation quiltmaker, I've washed a lot of quilts! Today, I'm sharing quilting tips on how to care for a quilt and what to communicate when gifting one, ensuring your handmade gifts are enjoyed for years to come.

Whether you are gifting a quilt or have been lucky enough to receive one, let's demystify how to wash a quilt safely in the washing machine, dry it with or without the use of a dryer, and how to help it last for years of use and love.
