A children's room is a special room where everyday life turns into a fairy tale, and serious everyday activities are combined with the game.

When choosing accessories for a children's room, it is necessary to take into account all the specific nuances of this room, which is both a bedroom, and a playroom, and a training area. What is important to consider when choosing textiles: curtains and bedspreads? First of all, fabrics for sewing should be hygienic and safe, i.e. It is easy to wash, without losing the brightness of colors and the original appearance. In addition, materials, albeit synthetic, must be environmentally friendly, soft and pleasant to the touch. A children's bedspread does not have to be sewn from the same fabric as the curtains, but it should be combined in color with other elements of the textile. When choosing a product in the store, look at the options of acrylic. This material is soft, pleasant, eco-friendly and easy to care for. A children's bedspread on an acrylic bed imitates fur or natural wool, and bright patterns or images of fairy-tale heroes loved by children add to the interior paint and a good mood. An inadvertently planted spot on it will not bring much grief, since it is easily removed with a solution of hydrogen peroxide.

A great alternative to the finished product, bought at the store, will be a baby bedspread on a bed made by yourself. The exclusive item will certainly become a decoration of the room and will delight the baby with a bright unusual design. Of course, to do it, it will take patience and accuracy, but the time spent on work will not be in vain. There are several techniques that are simple enough that will allow you to make an inexpensive, but very beautiful product.

Children's bedspreads on a bed are crocheted or knitted with a simple pattern of fluffy yarn of delicate colors. Acrylic, mohair, and twisted cotton thread are suitable for such a product. The yarn should be soft, fluffy, of good quality. It is better to use threads of different colors, twisting them together for melange coloring, or knitting colored stripes, squares or circles, then connecting them in a certain color sequence. A beautiful bedspread for a children's bed (photo in the article), connected with simple single crochet columns of thick soft yarn, with a patterned border decorated with a satin ribbon, will turn out even for a beginner knitter.

Very original and bright products are made using the patchwork technique, complementing them with volumetric application.

Pieces of material that mix well in color and patterns are cut into strips or squares, stitched together, then cut out the back of a plain fabric, a thin synthetic winterizer is laid between the parts of the bedspreads, fastened with pins and sewn on the machine with wide stitches in any shape (zigzag, snake )

Then the children's bedspread from the bed of colored stripes of fabric is trimmed at the edges with a wide contrasting edging. Such a product is additionally decorated with applique. To do this, first, a template is cut out of cardboard, then the appliquΓ© details are cut out of the fabric and sewn onto the bedspread by hand with small stitches. In this case, the edges of the material can be processed, but you can leave a light fringe. Voluminous flowers are made from strips of fabric collected on a thread on one side so that a gathered circle is obtained. They are sewn onto the base in the form of multilayer buds, highlighting the middle with a bright contrasting fabric circle or a colored pompom.
