Baby Quilt Gift Set Surprise

One of the things I enjoy doing when we finish making a handmade baby quilt is matching it to a gift toy or item to make it into a gift set. So many of our customers like to order and ship directly to a different address that having the gift sets featured and ready to ship makes it easier for customers to see exactly what they are ordering, and what their gift recipient will get on the other end.

The match also includes the actual handmade baby quilt that they are buying. Since many of our handmade baby quilts are custom, no two are exactly alike so we like our customers to see the exact handmade baby quilt they are purchasing.

Since so many of our thank you notes involve comments about the delight over the free toys, I take the matchmaking process quite seriously.

When matching up the handmade baby quilt with the free toy that delivers the gift tag, I try to take my cue from the fabrics in the baby quilt. There is a pink rag baby quilt with ducks so the gift toy I matched to the baby quilt is a cute baby toy duck, for example.

For this pink baby quilt gift set, in the original photo I had a purple bunny that complimented the baby quilt. When the handmade baby quilt was purchased, however, I remembered seeing another purple bunny that would be an even better match. Can you see why?

The toy bunny had wings to match the purple dragonflies on the handmade baby quilt!

When matched with the pink rag baby quilt with the purple and blue dragonflies, they looked like they were made for each other. They all looked perfect bundled together in the gift box, I smiled the whole way down to the post office.

It really is the simple things in life.
