I bought this to transition from my kid's winter wool comforter into spring and summer. The fabric is a high-quality child-friendly cotton. The print is really sweet and interesting (the animals go beyond what is typically represented in children's prints) and should transition well from my 5 year-old to a young teen. It has an intentional slightly faded look. The stitching is high-quality and the quilt held up fine to the initial washing in the machine. The little hedgehog pillow is a nice addition. I wish the bird pillow was also available for sale!
