A Timeless Heirloom for Baby’s Earliest Days
The Gardenia Heirloom Receiving Blanket is an in-house, handcrafted keepsake, that is made to order. Our signature blanket is thoughtfully created using traditional French hand-sewing techniques and designed to be cherished for generations. Created with patience, intention, and care, this blanket reflects the quiet beauty of heirloom craftsmanship and the enduring traditions of the Deep South.
Each blanket is handmade in Alabama from 100% high-quality organic cotton, offering a luxuriously soft feel with exceptional durability. Generously sized at approximately 36" x 45", it is perfect for swaddling, christenings, portraits, nursery display, and preserving as a family keepsake.
Every blanket is finished with a cotton pearl Point de Paris stitched edge—a classic French technique prized for both its beauty and strength and a 4" cotton eyelet lace trim. Each piece is pre-laundered to prevent shrinkage and ensure lasting quality.
This is a durable keepsake meant to be passed down, carrying with it the story of how a child was welcomed into the world.

For true heirloom pieces, we often recommend a classic motif over a monogram - a timeless design that will remain beautiful for generations to come.
