Bed Sheets

Sew- These have been a long time coming.. as in I made them like, 9 months ago... yeah, that seems to be the turn around time in my life these days.

but here we go -
When I was prego last time, we had a 1,000 year old mattress, and my growing body let me know that every morning. So when Mar-May was a few months old, we had some extra $ and I demanded that we purchase a new mattress. We go a pretty good deal on a memory foam one from Costco - the only draw back? It was huge. Really thick. Which was great, but none of our sheet properly fit it.
So, sew I did.

heres a shot of the bed nicely made.... cuz it looks like this ALL the time...

I bet you cant tell by the pic, but our bed is almost twice as thick as a regular mattress.

and although I can make my own sheets, no I do not iron them. See below.
I did elastic casing the whole way around. In my mind, this makes them fit better.

I made a top and bottom sheet. I made two full sets, the other being in the Blue Paisley seen in my shop.
detail shot of the top sheet below.
Sew here I am busting back into my blogging. As you can well imagine, you wont be seeing me here daily, or weekly, but I have a new resolve to pop in at least monthly. And because I ran this blog this way in the past, the "feast and famine" routine will more than likely keep up as well.
Much love to my faithful readers.
