Whenever our bottom sheets got worn out on our king bed, I used the still-in-good-shape top sheet to make crib sheets. I laid the fabric on the floor, traced around the crib mattress, and stitched up the four corners. I used fold-over elastic that I had on hand and put that around the edges for one sheet, ForHisGloryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07630188021876419996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-6055246890836396782015-07-07T11:10:44.077-07:002015-07-07T11:10:44.077-07:00Sharon I would like to go see the quilt backing.

It is still a very high and nice count. I'm satisfied with 200-count personally. The sheets you made are so pretty. I saw quilt backing in the fabric store yesterday and thought of your sheets. They had several 180-inch in prints, very pretty.SharonRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16043548752523750347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-55892297689997086312015-07-06T08:46:09.385-07:002015-07-06T08:46:09.385-07:00I love those colors and how the fabrics coordinate...I love those colors and how the fabrics coordinate without being a matched pattern. Very pretty! I made crib sheets for my little one before she was born and it was a quick and easy project using 45" quilters' cotton. It was also a significant savings as crib sheets are expensive for really no reason!Mrs. Cotehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15978458558662816811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-5777730457192446092015-07-05T11:22:27.074-07:002015-07-05T11:22:27.074-07:00Again you have inspired us to try something differ...Again you have inspired us to try something different and lovely for our homes and families. <br /><br />I have wanted to make a pretty and practical set of sheets for our home.

We had a couple sets of them in the past and the threads popped and left tiny flaws that looked like snags or runs. <br /><br />Years ago when the wide quilt printed muslin was sold for quilt backs, I made just a top sheet for our bed out of a double wedding print, I used a plain Rhondahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07898829593961271218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-31406688695229460892015-07-03T20:26:30.892-07:002015-07-03T20:26:30.892-07:00They look very nice.

We've had our mattress for a long time so I bought a gel backed mattress bad and a gel pad to go above it. It's like a new mattress. I'm hoping to get a couple more years out of it. CA King mattresses are not cheap, even on sale. <bramulbunny's random thoughtshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10621932038345682056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-73571783285168109502015-07-03T06:15:50.499-07:002015-07-03T06:15:50.499-07:00I like this idea!
