Baby Blue is a pale baby blue from Shannon Fabrics’ Cuddle Extra Wide line. It’s a solid minky with a plush 3mm pile, made from 100% polyester, and 90" wide, so one length can back many quilts.
Soft and calming, this classic light blue is a favorite for baby boy quilts, nursery blankets, and shower gifts. It pairs beautifully with grays, whites, yellows, and pastel prints on the front, and it brings an airy, gentle finish to coastal and winter quilts.
Cuddle is also popular for baby accessories, stuffed animals, pillows, and apparel. If you’re sewing with minky for the first time, a walking foot, plenty of pins or clips, and a slightly longer stitch length make it much easier to handle. Compare Baby Blue with Raindrop for a greener aqua.
