| Here's baby gir's room... I mean the dining room... |
Butterfly Art
in pinks and black and white on an aqua background (might put her foot
prints on the mat board after she gets here just to make it extra cool!)
I'm so excited that I have this one done already! I'm not sure if you can see by my pictures that the butterfly wings are actually up off the page. I put an extra layer of cardboard between the mat and the butterfly background to help them not get smashed by the glass. You can also see the baby girl booties that mom made for her, and the book Kate gave us!
Here's what the baby's crib quilt will look like-ish. I had to
improvise a bit cuz I was using leftovers from this quilt when I made it
for Brad & Josie's baby, Emree. The quilt is all cut and some of the blocks are put together but I had to stop when my surger decided it was done. (won't hold tension in the one dial and there's no way to get parts for it any more) I was going to do the baby's room zebra, pink and aqua to match the butterflies but I had a chat with my mom and decided to save those for baby girl's big girl bedroom... I have twin zebra sheets I've been saving for her since I didn't go back to school like I was thinking I would... instead I got Kurt and more happiness than I was planning on for a long time!
Below are links to the rest of the projects coming up... I'll post pictures later.
Extra cute and simple mobile ... it's a chandelier! Don't worry I'm not using lead crystal... but it's going to look similar to this. Kurt spray painted one part for me today so I should be able to finish it while he's out of town this week.
Velcro to the crib skirt yep, less fabric cuz it Velcros on to the spring part of the crib.
Crib rail covers Should I do this? I don't know what's great and what's just fluff.
slide under the bed boxes
I'll have to change the dimensions... our crib is pretty low so I think
I'll only have about 4" to work with but I hate the idea of missing out
on that storage space in such a small apartment already!
Bumper pattern option 1
Bumper pattern option 2 ... which one? I think they're pretty similar... if you have pointers please let me know.
Crib sheets this tutorial is so good I'm not sure I have a chance to mess that one up! :)
I
have lots of fun projects to get done before too long. The big one
this week is figuring out how much I need of which fabrics and going to
town on it! I also need to take pictures of me looking pregnant as I'm sure some of you are curious to see this. I was just barely starting to look pregnant in Oregon for Christmas... I think this bump might look like a baby instead of a fat girl finally. No one ever talks about this awkward in between stage... or how long it lasts!
