i'm making a cradle mattress.
i found a product called NuFoam
at Jo-Ann's. it comes in all sizes and
thicknesses. they even have it in a kit
for crib bumpers. anyway...i bought 2 inch
thick and doubled it. i had this amazing soft
sage - grey pillow ticking in my stash.
i laundered it and started my first
attempt at hand welting!
wrapped and pinned!
nice and tight!
hand welting, it's looking good!
finishing the ends...just like a perfectly
wrapped package!
(hmmmm, maybe i should have saved
this for Wednesday's wrap!)
a closer view of the end...the corner edges
still need to be tucked! i'll show you
the finished product tomorrow!

i apologize for the lighting and quality
of the photo's, but...i do most of my work
at dawn and dusk...(before and after work).
i just have to share the morning light today.
i love my dining room, even when it's in
decorating transition. (it's time to take
the anniversary love letters off of the
chandie!) i'm off to work early.
i must stay ahead of the game to take
time off for the big arrival day!
