Instead, it was more like knit flannel. I ordered two of these kits as a gift for my niece with the idea that she could combine them and make a nice lap quilt. When they arrived, I was very disappointed to see the fabric was thin - more like something you would make pajamas out of. I was expecting the kit to be made of fleece to make a warm and cuddly blanket. I returned the kits and will keep looking.
this was the #1 item our then-kindergartener wanted for Christmas. She needed supervision so as to not get the knots mis-aligned --- but she's very pleased with herself that she pretty much did this on her own. If you have a little one interested in fabric crafts - I highly recommend it.
I'm anxious to see how each assembles hers in a unique way. I purchased two sets as Christmas gifts so have not yet seen them in action. They look to be exactly what I'm looking for to spend time with my 7 and 9-year-old granddaughters. The plan is to have them personalize some of the squares with machine embroidery before tieing them together. I love quality time projects.
A while ago I sent this as a gift for a tween. They live in another state, so I never did get to see the finished results. However, the family reported to me that Alex Knot a Quilt inspired hours of creative play and the effort was very well worth it because the results are beautiful.The components are good quality, and the kit actually produces a beautiful, useful object.Sounds great to me.
I am a preschool director and we used this product with fabric markers to create a quilt for our school's annual fundraiser. Each child decorated two squares and our room mothers helped tie it together. It turned out beautifully.
