My wonderful mother spent a good chunk of her Sunday afternoon sewing the baby's bedding. She is so talented! She made a crib skirt and throw pillows for the glider that match the curtains and blanket she made a couple months ago. I'm going to take pictures of the entire nursery once it's complete, but for now here's a photo taken on my phone of the crib. The crappy pic quality doesn't show how great it really looks! The teal blue is much darker than the photo shows.

Another project completed this week are the letters to go above the crib. I bought
kraft letters from Paper Source and painted them with dark brown acrylic, then traced the letters on the arglye paper (that I made by copying the pattern from the bumper and printing it out), cut those out and glued them to the top. They look pretty good! Up close you can see the tiny flaws but oh well :) Here's a sneak peek and a clue to his name (it has an E in it!)
love it!!
