SwaddleDesigns Ultimate Receiving Blankets are designed by a registered nurse and mother of two young children. Made of 100% cotton flannel, our very soft fabric meets Oeko Tex Standard 100. Ultimate Receiving Blankets feature SwaddleDesigns signature stitch and are offered in a variety of designer colors and prints. Sized at 42" by 42, " our swaddling blankets are larger than typical receiving blankets. Each blanket comes with our exclusive 123 Swaddle instructions sewn to the edge of the blanket (patent pending). The blankets are an excellent value and can be used for years. They have a multitude of uses beyond swaddling such as a privacy throw when breastfeeding, play mat for tummy time and a shield over the stroller to protect from the sun or cool breeze. Machine washable and proudly made in the USA.
