Alex Knot a Quilt
   
With kids home for summers and the opressive heat, at least down here in the south, it’s always good to have something crafty on hand to keep little fingers busy. The Alex Knot A Quilt from FAO Schwarz is an absolutely fabulous way to keep little fingers occupied without having to have mom and dad around to help out with stitching! The Alex Knot A Quilt set is recommended for children aged 6-10 years…or older, I personally find this set really fun and entertaining! The Knotted Quilt set is pretty self explanatory but comes with instructions for new comers to knotted quilting. The quilt set also comes with 48 squares of fleece material in six different

colors that can be used to knot together to make one huge quilt! The final quilt comes to a great 36" x 48" and is really colorful. The greatest part of knotted quilting is that children get to create something they can show off and be proud of with very little chance of "doing it wrong". Another GREAT thing about this set is that once you’ve got ahold of how to create a quilt you can run to your local Michaels or Walmart and pick up a fabric your child loves and have them start over giving you a great and cheap summer activity…come to think of it, it’s a great year round activity!

The Alex Knot A Quilt set from FAO Schwarz is carried by and sold through Amazon.com for just under $25. Another option for this set is to find instructions online for knotted quilting and run to your local Walmart or Michaels and find some material that you like and get started that way!
