More baby bedding q's

I would really like to make my baby's crib bedding set instead of purchasing one (I haven't found any that I just love).  But I have found some awesome fabric!

Has anyone ever seen classes offered for baby bedding making/sewing?  Or has anyone ever made baby bedding?  Is it hard, strenuous, not worth it?

Thanks a bunch.

It couldn't be that hard... i would probably go with making the crib blanket/ comforter and bumpers and buying a plain sheet set... Making sheets would be more complicated I guess...

Keep in mind tho that in retail anything related to baby sleeping has to meet strenous requirements of textile laws including being flame retardant and various other things... this is what you'd benefit from when buying a set... otherwise I'm sure you can find various fabrics that meet these requirements, but again makes it more complicated... (sorry I own a maternity company so I know these things and I know how complicated it can get ha!!)

I'm kinda in the same boat. ?I saw a lot of fabrics I loved, just no sets yet. ?I'm planning on buying plain sheet sets, or at least some that go along with the rest... which I'll make. ?Not so sure how this plan will actually turn out once I start, but I'm hoping it's good!

Thanks for the advice!  I know that Hancock fabrics offers a 4-piece baby bumper pad and all you do is sew the fabric you want around it.  I too would buy a plain sheet and work really hard to make the bumper and quilt as cute as possible.  I really need to find someone who knows how to do it.  I wish they offered classes at Michaels or somewhere similar.  I'm sure some people would go!
