Am making a crib quilt for a baby boy and the bright green fabric I liked has glitter on it. Besides getting on other fabric, will it hurt the baby? If so, guess I'll be looking for something else...
|
Is it shedding? is it scratchy?
If it is, I would use something else. |
I'd worry about it getting in his eyes. If you prewash it, the loose stuff might all come off, but I'd be very careful about using it.
|
I don't think you want to take a chance of glitter getting in the baby's eyes. I have fabrics with glitter and they shed glitter everywhere no matter how many times they're washed.
|
He could also breathe it in - as could you when you sew with it. I don't think I would take the chance.
|
That's what I was thinking. Back to square one! Looks like a trip to get fabric in near future.
|
Just say NO to glitter and babies is my thinking.
|
I don't think I would use it on a baby quilt.

One fabric I absolutely will not use is anything with glitter or gold or silver. It just seems to cause more problems than the effect is worth. I am a big fan of the
Flower Faries and when the fabric came out I was in heaven. Then I saw it first hand and I was so disappointed. Glitter all over it and it is a really great line except for the glitter! |
