Im planning on making my own baby bedding this time. For one, its a lot cheaper, and two, i need something to do with my time!

I'm super excited about having a custom nursery that no one else has. So, for anyone else considering it i wanted to share this AMAZING site i found. They have tutorials and patterns for pretty much EVERYTHING in the nursery.

-boutique style blankets, bumpers, crib skirt, pillows, quilt, curtains and valences, and lots of decor.

I'm super stoked to get started! WOOT!

Cuuute! I don't own a sewing machine and have never used one, but I think making your own stuff is awesome! I saw a cute Noah's Ark quilt pattern that I really wanted. Oh well.

OOOhhhh, great find! I can't wait to check it out more- it looks awesome!

Oh, that is really cool! I wish I had a room to do a nursery in. I am waiting until baby is born before redoing any rooms.

What a great site! That stuff is super cute. With my DD my Mom and her sisters made my crib set and it came out great. I want to try and make some of the collapsible storage baskets on that site. They look easy and with some fun fabric would be so cute.

I was thinking the other day how I wish I could make my own nursery set. I wish I had the skills and the time. Maybe one day. Make sure to show us pictures of the things you make.

Hmmmmmmm! I just might make my own as well! I'd toyed with the idea, but couldn't find any good sites to teach how to make them! Thanks for sharing!!

I have a sewing machine that my mom gave me 12 yrs ago and I have NEVER used. I don't know how to. The fabric looks really nice. Very different. Maybe I should try to sew. I don't know if it is hard and if you can teach yourself? How did you get started with sewing?

[srprisebean3]

I'm self taught. With the internet you can pretty much teach yourself anything these days

I do wedding cakes and am completely self taught there too.

I might really do it, dig out my sewing machine and dust it off, download some instructions and give it a try. It's nice to have inspiring ideas that will make me try something new. Thanks for that!

yeah, youtube is amazing. I learned cakes from youtube tutorials!! lol! with my sewing, i learned the basics in 7th grade home ec class, not that i did very well. i can't make clothes, but i can make curtains...so i'm hoping bedding won't be that much harder. here's hoping!

Wow, this is great! Thanks for sharing. I don't know why I never thought about making my own before... I sew all the time and this seems like fun. If I am having a boy I will need something that goes for both genders since they are sharing a room.
