AW: Fabric I got to make my bedding PIP

in 2nd Trimester
So here's the fabric I picked out!  Unfortunately making it myself is not saving any money, but it's fabric I picked out and am making it how I want it.   The pink fabric is the bumper, the green is the skirt, and the yellow is the sheet.

    Cute!  How difficult would you say making it is?  Something a beginner could do?

    It's absolutely worth it if it ends up being exactly what you wanted!

    I'm making my own too! You're right, it's not a huge money saver, depending on what fabric is used, but I like the idea of making this myself. I don't knit- so this crib bedding is my version of knitting booties.

    (By the way, your fabric is gorgeous.)

    Cute!!!

    So jealous. I can hardly wait to get a crib so that I can make the skirt and sheets. I think I'm actually going to go out this weekend and look at fabric.

    You definitely need to share photos of the final product!

     The pattern I got is just for your basic bumper, sheet, and skirt (it's flat, not the fluffy kind) so I'm hoping that makes it easier.  I'll pip when I finish making it and let you know if it was easy or not.

    I've been on the prowl for a while now for the perfect gender-neutral fabric -- still haven't found it. Do you know who the designer is of this stuff? I'm trying to look at lots of stuff before I decide!!!

    i love it!  my Mom & I made DDs bedding & it ended up being WAY more money than buyng a bedding set (of course, we also made a queen quilt) but it was a fun project!

    The pattern I got is by Butterick, and it's number B4947.  To make the bumper, skirt, and 2 sheets, I ended up buying 15 1/2 yards.  I'm hoping to have extra left over to make other things with.
