Before Shelby's birth, I found this on Etsy and fell in love!! LOVE!!!! https://www.etsy.com/listing/106646733/custom-designer-breathable-crib-bumper?ref=shop_home_active&ga_search_query=bumper Unfortunately, I couldn't afford the price. Fortunately, I can crochet and do the granny square. So I made my own! Here is how it turned out:
It wasn't very hard or time-consuming, but I just finished it recently because we've had so much going on,...and she's been sleeping with me. (However, she started sleeping in her crib in the past week and she's doing great! At least 8 hours without waking!) When I took these pictures I had only crocheted "ties" along the bumper at about every other granny square. I since took it down and added ties to every square because it wasn't staying up the best. So as far as crib bumpers go, it doesn't really have padding and it isn't exactly the most functional, but it's beautiful, right?! And she is still sleeping in my room and I am a light sleeper so I am sure she will be safe. I am excited to pass this down to future generations!!!
PS - The quilt was bought on Etsy (I SO WISH I HAD THIS TALENT!) here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/Dancingangelsquilts.
