Baby Crib Bumper

Yesterday early in the morning I decided not to start my day with any housework, but instead to sew the baby bumper for my grandson. It took me less than one hour to achieve it. I took pictures step by step and in my next post I will write the tutorial : I thought it may help beginners to do it the simplest way.

I brought this bumper to my daughter who was pleased to get it at last and we fixed it in the crib. Baby seems to enjoy it... not for long as he is growing so fast that we shall have to buy a bigger bed soon... and to sew a new bumper!

Baby received many beautiful presents as this Beatrix Potter porcelain tableware, and this cute elephant matching perfectly with the quilt I offered my daughter last summer.

Crib Bumper Project

My second grandson is already two month old and I did not manage to sew either his bumper, or his baby quilt... too much work and visitors during the Christmas holidays.. and after! I will try to start these days. First step I decided for the fabrics : the mushroom fabric will be for the crib bumper and the grey ones for the quilt. (My daughter's choice).

Fabric Selection

Baby's things

I chose this cute fabric for the baby's crib bumper.

For the baby's bed I thought of a windmill pattern with these shades of grey.

These days are very busy getting everything ready for the birth of my daughter's first child,
forseen begining of December!

Cheers!

Amities a toutes!

Bumper and baby quilt

I received those pictures from my son and his wife, 

and it is a great pleasure for me to see that the bumper

and the baby quilt I sewed with love are of use to their baby!

Baby seems very happy under his quilt,

and happy as well above it!
