nursery stuff

My mom is making the bedding and quilt for the nursery so this involved some picking of fabrics. I have a few pictures of baby animals for the room taken by a Michigan author and photographer to start with and finding this fabric was a perfect match. The colors even matched the paint I had started to put in the room - even the green. Pretty amazing. This requires the use of your imagination as they are not put together yet.

So these are the sheets - the frogs will be for daycare as the colors are a little off, but I loved the frogs and paisley lily pads too much to pass them up. Mark love the squirrel sheet fabric. I see they have blue polka dots online in this fabric line so they might be a good choice too.



These fabrics make up the bumper and skirt. Skirt is the little polka dots. Bumper is two sided with the animals on one side and the plaid ric rac on the other.

And this is the quilt fabric. The backing is the large animal print and the ric rac is the border of the front. It is turning out cute so far. Project for this weekend is to finish painting the nursery and pick out the window treatments. Most likely shades without cords as they are on sale at JCP. Also going crib shopping at Babies R Us. They are having a trade in sale and well we found some trade in's on our walk last night waiting for the garbage man OR people like us. Definitely not meant to be used by anyone. Yucky shape, but I'll allow them in my car to get a deal on a new crib! BRU doesn't seem to run sales so this is perfect timing.
