courtesy of the two nursery pictures: my friend L in Chicago
big reveal of the baby nursery set I made for our dear friends in Chicago. a total of 4 sheets, 3 large pillows, a little quilted cushion and drapery around the baby bed. made of fabric the mom and I carefully selected together, of the baby's dad's former favorite shirt, ultimate Dutch tile fabric, lovely ribbons with windmills, and Ikea sheets.
thank you very much again dear L for this lovely order, I truly enjoyed putting it all together and am very happy to see you love it too. for the rest of my life, when I see pictures of this set, I will be thinking back to a wonderful week together with the pregnant mama-to-be last summer, hours on whatsapp sending pictures and designs back and forth, and hours behind my cutting table and sewing machine, putting it all together.
I am quite proud of this set, totally in Dutch style with the colors of our flag, for a very special Dutch American baby boy.
happy weekend to you!
Just beautiful, Maaike. I especially love the patchwork cushion with the little Dutch boy and girl and windmills print, totally gorgeous.

Wow!!! That looks amazing. Well done. X Jenn
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous - like everything you make. I just finished making some bedding for my toddler, up-cycling an old sheet filled with memories. It was one of the most satisfying projects I have made.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful blend of the two countries! Well done.

What a lovely set of baby things. I'm sure the parents appreciate your skills every time they walk into the nursery. I know I would!
ReplyDeleteKrijg er zomaar een beetje babyheimwee van!
ReplyDeleteAm I spotting some 'Nijntjes' there ;) ?
ReplyDeleteLovely set, the red gingham fabric really goes well with the Delft blue!
Love, Kirsten
