13 Beautiful And Sweet Baby Quilt Kits

One of my favorite quilt projects to work on is a baby quilt.

There’s just something about making a quilt for a new little bundle of joy that makes the project even more special and precious to me.

I know it can be overwhelming to figure out how much fabric to buy (especially if you are ordering online) or trying to match colors and patterns together, especially for beginner quilters.

In this post, I want to show you a few precut baby quilt kits along with several baby quilt kits for beginners that will help take all the guesswork out of making your next baby quilt.

What Is a Baby Quilt Kit?

Quilt kits have gained popularity because they are convenient and take the guesswork out of planning a quilt project. Quilt kits are an all-in-one package that includes a quilt pattern and the fabric needed for the quilt top and binding (and sometimes, they include fabric for the backing as well.)

So a baby quilt kit is simply a kit assembled for a baby quilt. They are usually inexpensive and have a simple design, making them great beginner-friendly projects. Some baby quilt kits also include embroidery designs that you can use to decorate the quilt blocks, but not always.

Are Baby Quilt Kits Worth It? 

It’s a great question; I’ll do my best to answer it. Whether a quilt kit is worth it depends heavily on the quilter planning to make it. Let’s review why a quilt may or may not be worth it.

Worth It:

  • Saves time gathering supplies or designing a quilt from scratch
  • The fabrics are professionally curated, so you can be confident everything matches nicely.
  • Inexpensive
  • They’re great for anyone who doesn’t like to do quilt math.
  • They’re also great for those who find fabric shopping overwhelming.

Not Worth It:

  • If you enjoy fabric shopping, it takes the fun out of finding coordinating fabrics.
  • Presumably, there are a bunch of quilt kits made with the same fabrics, so your quilt won’t be one-of-a-kind.
  • The designs are usually simple, so if you want a challenging quilt pattern, you probably won’t find one in a baby quilt kit.

What To Look For In A Baby Quilt Kit

When hunting around for the perfect kit, there are a few factors you’ll want to look for in your search.

  • What’s included in the kit: Not all kits are created equal. Some will only include fabric for the quilt top. Others will also include the binding fabric and backing fabric. Just be sure to check into this when looking around, so you’re not hit with a surprise expense or extra trip to the fabric store.
  • Finished size of the quilt: If the expecting mother specifically asks for a crib size quilt, make sure you don’t buy a kit meant for a throw size quilt or vice versa.
  • Gender/ Gender Neutral design. Some parents like to keep the gender of their baby a secret even from themselves. In cases like these, your best option will probably be a “gender-neutral” quilt kit. Find out from the parents if they have a color palette chosen for their nursery and find a kit that would be loved by either a boy or a girl…or both!

This cozy warm looking rag quilt would make a lovely gift for a sweet baby boy or girl. Kids love rag quilts because of the texture of the rag seams and the soft flannel used to create them.

This kit will include a pattern, instructions, and all the fabric needed for the quilt top and the backing.

It does not come with the middle layer (usually another layer of flannel or fleece), so you will need to order that separately. Unlike the other rag quilt kit I showed you earlier, the flannel is included as yardage and won’t be cut into squares already. The final size will be 30”x50”.

Chevron has made a comeback, and it is great on a quilt. This beginner quilt kit has all the fabrics you need to make this fun quilt top. You can also purchase the backing fabric for an added cost from the seller.

  1. I started quilting when my Grandmother took ill and was in a coma. When I went to see her she woke up, and told me how cold she was. I went out not knowing how to sew two pieces of material together, bought the best sewing machine at that time and was on the last square of the Grandmother’s fan when she passed. I finished the quilt and the rest is history.
    When I had my mastectomy, 4 years ago, quilting is what got me through my illness. I have had my Babylock Ellisimo for around 10 years and absolutely love it. That was about 300 quilts ago.
