OH . . .SEW HAPPY!

COLETTE'S NURSERY

Devin writes:  "Wish I had a better camera to take better pics with, because the crib bumper & skirt are really beautiful!  I chose the fabric for Colette's room to be a mix of soft blues and greens.  I shy away from the pinks, etc.  The fabric was from Amy Butler's Midwest Modern collection." 

Devin also used the 'formula' in the Make Room for Baby Kit instructions to have the skirt 'kiss' the floor, giving it that 'designer's touch'.

Thank you Devin, for taking the time to send in the photo of the finished nursery, it looks great!

Lauren writes:  "The affordable stuff out there isn't my style but, the stuff that is, is too expensive.  I'm okay at sewing and I figure this can't be too difficult.  I've found some great fabrics that I'm really excited to use."

After a few e-mails and sewing tips, Lauren sent the picture along with another note . . .

"I got my fabric from Mood fabrics in LA and I love the way it turned out!  thanks so much for your help.  I love your site!"

Lauren, what a memorable project and a great accomplishment, not to mention the hugs and kisses you stitched in that darling fabric.  Great job!

 

 

HARPER'S NURSERY

Krystal writes:  "Thank you so much for selling a great product.  Our bedding couldn't have turned out better and it looks just like the $1000 bedding we were about to purchase from a local boutique."

I love hearing from you and seeing all of your great ideas and beautiful fabric choices.  I especially like to hear that you have exactly what you had hoped for and more, while saving lots of money . . . for strollers and lots of other things!  

If you are thinking about sewing and have your doubts, I hope these ladies have encouraged you.  I am always available and can send detailed instructions on each and every step.  

Zippers being one of the things I hated (yes, dread was not strong enough at one point, although this is not a pair of pants), I can reassure you that it is simply sewing along the edge of the 'teeth' on the zipper. You do not, should not, and there is no need to sew a flap over that zipper!  The zipper is tucked away between the mattress and the bottom of the bumper where no one goes for even a peek!

If you still have doubts, visit a fabric store and see how many beautiful choices are out there.  Sew many choices!
