I worked all day on Olivia's bedding today! We moved Kenwood's toys upstairs and I got out plenty of stickers and "crafty" stuff for him to do while I worked on the sewing machine. It was actually a pretty productive day!!! I am not using a pattern for any of the bedding, just kind of taking measurements and working from there. I finally taught myself how to sew a ruffle (for the bumpers) the other day which took me SEVERAL different tries and about 3 different techniques. Of course, the easiest was the last one I tried! So, I mastered the ruffles and finished those today as well as pre-washed the "fabric"/blankets for the bumpers. Once I mastered the ruffles, I moved on to the crib skirt...same "ruffle" technique in a much larger scheme! BUT...it turned out BEAUTIFULLY!! I am so proud of myself :) Here is a sneak peek at the crib skirt...bumpers are next on the list!
Finished skirt close up....
No mattress yet, so I had to lay down a blanket to get a better idea of how it will look...
I am sooo excited!
That looks awesome!!! I wish I could sew.....I'm so jealous!!
