When Miss O was born, we went out and bought an expensive bedroom set with all the fixings. The blanket turned out to be for decoration only, and the curtains are wadded up in the top of her closet. There were also pieces included in the set that we did not want or need. This second time around we decided to do something different and make this stuff on our own. Well, so far so good. Here is the finished blanket for his crib! I was originally going to try to make a quilt, but the idea of picking out different color choices really stressed me out. When we got to the fabric store and I saw a bolt of quilt top already made, and in the colors we wanted, I decided to make this project super simple. Miss O is in love with this fabric, and as you can tell every time it was in the floor, she had to be on top of it.
My next project for his room will be the curtains, and I already have the fabric picked out for that. Looking back, I wish I had made the stuff for Miss O's room as well, but at the time it was way beyond my abilities. It is nice to have my say on what I want everything to look like, and to have it fit just the way I want.
