This tutorial was wonderful, particularly because as I'm not a very experienced seamstress, you explained the steps in a very straightforward way and demonstrated every part up close and personally. Look out next baby shower mama-to-be! -- I will try to channel my inner Tara Reed and come up with something personal and adorable for you! Thank you, Madame Seamstress! :)

[@ArtistTaraReed]

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised at how easy it is to make (I was the first time I made one.) That will be a lucky baby 🥰

[@user-dg8df4yf5f]

Thanks for the detailed instructions!

[@ArtistTaraReed]

You’re very welcome!

[@user-wj4xe6lx1v]

Love that fabric! And the reminder to pre-wash!

[@ArtistTaraReed]

Pre-washing is key for anything for babies!

[@marybethwombacher9759]

I made them a few years ago for grand kids. So easy and so much cute kid fabric out there.

[@ArtistTaraReed]

What a great project for grandkids!

[@katepitner7596]

Love this tutorial!

[@ArtistTaraReed]

Glad you liked it!!

[@wibblewobble489]

Super helpful thank you so much I had always wondered how they get the edges like that haha is this a square crib sheet though? What about one with a rounded edge eg moses basket sheet? Would it work the same?

[@ArtistTaraReed]

Yes - you would cut the fabric to the curve you need and use the same method. It would be a little harder, honestly, because you'd have a little gather / overlap on curves so just go slowly with the iron when folding for best results if you give it a try!

[@onwardsandupwards7397]

What was the name of the tape that you used as a guide to sewing a straight seam?

[@ArtistTaraReed]

It's called "washi tape" - a really thin, low stick tape you can find in the scrapbooking aisle of most craft stores.

[@onwardsandupwards7397]

@@ArtistTaraReed Thank you so very much for answering my question! I will look for and buy washi tape from Joanne Fabrics.

[@ArtistTaraReed]

@@onwardsandupwards7397 You're so welcome! A lot of people use them for card making or planners but I love them as a seam guide. My niece likes picking out the color to use when she's here 🥰

[@onwardsandupwards7397]

@@ArtistTaraReed I'm loving all the uses for washi tape! I will think of some new used as well!!! I am looking forward to choosing some pretty colors! Thanks for sharing how your niece loves to use washi tape!
