Blue Tabbed Comforters
All of our baby comforters are printed on the same super soft cloth as our muslins (which is as soft as the very best velvet you've ever stroked or a new baby's bottom). They are finished with twelve little tabs of silky satin which little ones just adore rubbing between their fingers and underneath their noses! We thought very carefully about the size of our comforters (they are 25cm square) - making them small enough not to get tangled up with very small babies but big enough to feel cuddly and comforting for older children.
Good to know:
Our comforters stand up to rigorous machine washing - in fact the more you wash at 30 degrees the better they get!
All of our comforters are double thickness, so more substantial than our muslins but just as light and soft.
All of our fabrics are block printed by hand by our artisans and cooperatives in India and Nepal.
FAQs
What age are your comforters appropriate for? Any age! Lots of our customers buy or are bought comforters for their newborns and they are then kept for years!
What would be a good pairing for a comforter if I am buying one as a gift? How about a muslin for a little baby? Or one of our Dohar blankets?

About us
We are a small business making lovely things for small people
Willa and The Bear was founded by Hattie in 2014. Mama to Willa, Maud and Gus, Hattie knows a thing or two about the parenting journey and the stuff that helps make life a little bit easier!
We believe in quality and longevity
Every one of our pieces is designed by Hattie in Norfolk and made in small, female run studios in India or Nepal. Shilpa in Jaipur and Rojina in Kathmandu oversee our makers who are all true artisans in their field, block-printing and finishing each item by hand.
Ethical production only
We only use trusted makers and supply chains that operate completely ethically. No mass-produced, anonymous factory settings for us which means that our products are invariably more expensive to produce but we wouldn’t have it any other way. We know that our customers appreciate this important part of our manufacturing process too.
The Process
By Hand
Our female-led studios mix our environmentally-friendly dyes entirely by hand...
The Process
Block Printing
Hattie's designs are painstakingly transferred to specially prepared wooden blocks which are then carved by hand. The designs are then printed onto our fabric by skilled artisans who create perfect repeat patterns entirely by eye.
