Making Fitted Crib Sheets

Once again I have decided to make something because Elijah and I are on a limited budget, and I feel really proud of myself when I do it the DIY-way :).


I am making Luciana some crib sheets for her new 4-in-1 crib!  I had some leftover material that fit it JUST PERFECT and is the perfect sheet material. 


Steps to making the crib sheet:


(1) I layed the matress down on the material and cut a pattern out for my crib sheets.
(2) I pinned my pattern and fitted it on my mattress to see if there were any adjustments that needed to be made before I started sewing
(3) I then used a serger to serg the corners and edges of my sheet.
(4) I measured out elastic, and hemmed it around the corner edges of the mattress
(5) I fitted the sheet on the mattress and was SUPER pleased with the results!


I have never sewn a fitted crib sheet, nor have I ever used a serger sewing machine... VERY COOL AND SUPER EXCITING!
