Baby Bumpers

Of course, as soon as I say that I've got free time, I suddenly become busy. I've still made time to work on the bumpers though.  I've finished three of them and only have three more to go.  I chose a milk chocolate brown ribbon for the ties. Make sure if using ribbon you seal the ends (a lighter held close will do the trick) to keep them from unravelling later on.

The contrast was really nice and even looks good once tied on the crib! I was excited to get to practice some hand-sewing when I had to hand-stitch the opening in the bottom after I slid in the bumper pads.  All in all I'm very happy with the bumpers and can't wait to finish the final three.  Hopefully, they'll be done by tonight.  Once they're all completed, I'll post the with pictures of them in the crib, next to the sheets and dust ruffle.  Then, it's on to the curtains!
