| Busy indeed! The shorts for Justin are cute. I like the red dragon print for my son. Do you plan to make the bedding in Kendall's nursery to go along with the valance? I like that the colors and print are perfect for a boy or girl. |

My grandson was so pleased with his shorts and valance on his birthday! He had picked the fabric out so didn't think he'd be very excited but he sure was. Now I have to make some for his brother! LOL I'm going to make a crib quilt to match Kendall's valance but they had already picked out the basic bedding design-goes along with the valance but not exact. My daughter has had fun picking out crib fabric-she figured Kendall would be in her own room around Christmas-assuming she shows up when she's supposed to LOL and wanted some Christmas/winter type sheets. I find the fish one is my favorite though-it's so bright. Lyn

Me too Lynn!! I want a christmas crib sheet. I am actually having to sew mine because my crib is a bit bigger than a travel crib but smaller than a standard one. I was actually sizing up an old snowman sheet I have that would be good for that, just never occured to me to use christmas or winter themes. Corse my boy isnt due until the end of feb.....But I love snowmen!!!

Stephi, those crib sheets whip up in no time! takes me longer to measure them out than to sew it seems. I think snowmen are "winter"-they're not just Christmas so make a few-they'll be really cute! If you are good with a serger the whole thing can be made on one, I tend to still put my elastic through a casing and so use both the serger & sewing machine on them.

Aren't you worried all that snow will make the baby cold? Dorothy |
