aw: Finished neutral crib bedding

I'm not a big poster, but wanted to share my crib bedding with you since I have been looking at a lot of yours when you post them :) I'm a novice at sewing, so this was a big project, I think it came out pretty good! I couldn't find any neutral crib sets that I liked, so I decided to make my own. If you're in the market, IKEA has beautiful fabric! Sorry the pics are so big - I'm still learning how to post correctly. Getting excited to continue the fun of the nursery decor - can't wait to see more of yours! :)

  • impressive!  However, that bumper is kinda a no-no with newborns.  Just an fyi.

  • Super cute!  I love the fabric combo.
  • Thank you everyone! I am going to tackle a matching changing pad cover next if I can find a simple pattern.

    @mrs.monica - I spent about a day on the crib skirt and about 3 days on the bumper. I had never sewn a zipper before and this had a 150" zipper - eek! It was a learning experience. But if I can do it, anyone can! The pillows took about 10 mins each. Once I realized how easy they were I wanted to make them for the whole house!

    karbarr - I know, its sad too because they look so nice. At least I can enjoy it for now and take them out when and if safety becomes an issue. Baby will be in a bassinet in our room for the first few months anyway. :)

  • Gorgeous!  I love it.  I am attempting a crib skirt this weekend.  I really want the skirt to be floor length so I can hide things underneath.  I'm in NH too, Concord area and thinking we CAN'T have weather like this in April.
  • It looks fantastic!  You did an awesome job.  :)
    When it's all said and done, what matters most is your relationships with other people; without good friends and family, what's the point?

    Yeah, I figure we should be safe by April.  I didn't want to have to worry about going into labor during a storm like today, but if last year is any indication (the first I've lived this far south), April weather should be ideal!
