There hasn’t been much sewing going on around here, that’s for sure. These crib sheets are all I have to show for myself, so I’m gonna show ’em.
This is a good sewing project if you’re sleep deprived and can’t tackle anything remotely complicated just yet. One rectangle with the corners cut out, four seams, and an elastic casing sewn around the entire thing. I used Dana’s crib sheet tutorial from MADE. I had every intention of making these before Oscar’s arrival, but I fell in love with this fabric from Birch Organic’s Camp Modern line, and it wasn’t available until mid-November, so I waited for it.
In the meantime I made another sheet from a Moda Sweetwater fabric (also used here). It just looks gray from a distance, but I like the subtle print.
I love seeing pretty fabric every time I walk into the room…
And this baby, of course.

YAY! I was just thinking this morning about how much I’ve been missing seeing your projects! Love the crib sheet, love little Oscar more. Perfect color. I love how soft that birch fabric is; got my hands on some too and it’s really nice.
That fabric is gorgeous (the bird print) and the baby, he is adorable!
Baby Oscar and those crib sheets are adorable!
the fact that you’re sewing at ALL has me amazed and impressed! And of course, I’m in love with your fabric choices – so perfect for your darling boy. Love his gaze in that last photo . . . it must melt your mama heart:)
He is SO cute! I love baby burritos ❤ I love that grey fabric too!
Wow that’s a great idea and one I would never have thought of! I love it! Nice work. Sometimes the simplest projects are the best, especially with a new babe in the house… who could not be any cuter! Swaddled and so contented in a crib – go Oscar! My babies would have nothing to do with their crib! Or that bedside cosleeper. it ended up being used as a place for holding random baby stuff!
What a doll!! So sweet. I loved making crib sheets. So easy and satisfying. Enjoy your babe!
How sweet that he gets to sleep on some mama-made sheets!
And oh my gosh, he just keeps getting cuter and cuter!
man! oscar is just one of the cuuutest babies ev.er. no joke.
and the sheets are nice, too 🙂
now see it’s posts like these that make me want another baby so I can do fun things like sew crib sheets. : ) I love these but especially that one from the Birch line. It’s perfect for a baby boy! he looks so cute, so huggable. I bet lila is loving being his big sister.

Aww, Oscar is adorable. That is the perfect fabric for his crib sheets.
oh Oscar is so adorable. seriously adorable. I love the sheets, they couldn’t be more perfect.
Ooooh, love that birch fabric!! I need to get me some! Never thought to make my own crib sheet but it is a sweet touch to a room. And that Oscar. Can never get too much of him!!
The fabrics you chose are AMAZING! And that little guy just makes them even better. 🙂
love the sheets… and i couldn’t help but notice how nice and simple the crib itself is – can you tell me who makes it & what the model is?
thanks! it’s an ikea tassa crib. they stopped making it 4 years ago, but i think ikea has some other similar models.
