Bumpers are Finished!

Yeah!!! I've finished the bumpers for the crib and I'm really happy with the way they turned out! I almost want to crawl in and snuggle against the soft sides!! 


I think the bumpers go very nicely with the sheet and dust ruffle! What do you think?


Now that the crib bedding is complete, I just need to finish the curtains!  The pattern for the curtains is a valance, but living in the sunshine state, I'd rather have something that covers the whole window and adds a little color to the room.  Unfortunately, my landlord is very adamant about us not painting the walls; even though I said I would paint the boring eggshell color back over it whenever we decide to move.  So I'm forced to add color to my boring eggshell-colored rooms which ever way possible.  Full-curtains will just have to do the trick for this room.  I'm considering buying some of those vinyl decals for the walls of his room as well.  I found some on Etsy but haven't decided which one, if any, I'd like to put up.  I should be able to sew and hang the curtain this weekend.  I hope everyone has a great weekend! Feel free to comment with any questions or comments you may have. I'd love to hear some feedback!

  1. Hi Vanessa!!! I think the crib bumpers look GREAT!!! You so need to teach me how to use this Husquvarna machine I have. All I can do is pillow cases....

  2. Hey Kimberly!!! If you can make pillow cases, you can make bumpers! It's all straight stitches. I can definitely help you with your machine! You'd be surprised how much you can make just by knowing the basics!
