In the last couple of weeks, I have made the crib skirt and two fitted crib sheets. I wasn't originally planning on making my own crib bedding, but decided to give it a shot. I'm so glad I did!
I had scoured the Internet for crib skirt tutorials, and honestly, they all looked like so much work. And why would you ever want to do more work that was absolutely necessary? Never.
I forgot to take pictures of the process, but all I did was take the measurements of the three sides of the metal mattress spring thing, add a 1/2 inch seam allowance, made my cuts, hemmed each piece, added velcro to the top of each piece, and stuck velcro to the crib spring.
Easy peasy, lemon squeezy.
This is what I ended up with:

| View fron the front |

| View from the side. |
The hardest part for me was the measuring and cutting the fabric, but it all worked out in the end.
Making it myself, I got exactly what I wanted for a lot cheaper than what I would have paid if I bought it in store.
