Okay, I am extremely picky person... :hehe ....I have been unable to find a bedding set that I like that is "us". So, I'm going to make one. I'm going to have a lady make me these- Shamrocks (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8262885755&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1) and I am going to make a quilt out of them. (I'm going to send her a swatch of the fabric I need her to match the embroidery to.)
My question for anyone who sews. How much fabric do you think I will need to do the bumper and crib skirt? Can anyone tell me the measurements I would need for these or where I could find I pattern to use as a template?
TIA!!
I can send you the measurements from the sets I make... Im going to say if its 45" fabric, you will need a good 8 yards 60" fabric you will only need about 6 yards.

Will those measurements be for the bumper, quilt and skirt?
Bumper and quilt.....
for the skirt you will need a good 3 more yards.... depends on the length of the skirt too... most are about 9-12 inches, but I have seen people do them 14-16 inches? :screwy
You want the sheet measurements too?

Are sheets hard to do? Fitted right?
No, not hard at all.... you know how to sew elastic right? Its really simple, one piece pattern, the only thing you do is sew the corners, and add the elastic when you are sewing the hem on the sheet. Go look at the bedding on my website... you can see what the sheets look like there....

That is a cute shamrock pattern!! I'm sure with the measurements you'll be able to do them yourself. Good Luck, Sweetie!!!
MW5M, I checked out your website and all the stuff on there is sooo cute!! I love the traveling baby seat. Do you ship to Australia?
