Here are some pictures of the crib bedding I made for Daphne before she was here. I made a couple fitted sheets, the skirt, the quilt, the nursing pillow cover, the little bag hung from the end to hold sundries, and the mobile. The quilt is just strips sewn together, cut diagonally, then sewn back together in a different direction. I think the nursing pillow pattern was Butterick. The birds are from the book One Yard Wonders, and everything else was measured to fit our mini crib. The birds on the Love & Joy fabrics go with the bird theme in my bedroom but are girly sweet for Miss Daphne.
*Disclaimer: Before you turn me in to child protective services, the blanket and pillow in the crib with the newborn are for demonstration purposes only, blah, blah, blah…
Beautiful!
I love the title of your blog! I’ve been telling myself lately that I need to make fewer homemade things (just finished halloween costumes and spent this week planning out a baby blanket which I was supposed to buy, but can’t resist making myself) and make sure I get a shower more than every other day instead. I read the title of your blog and it made me proud to be who I am instead. I skimmed through some of your posts and you are AMAZING, thanks for sharing it online with the rest of us!
What a darling collection of baby fun. I love the mobile.
