Doll's Pram Bedding

 Having just bought a Silver Cross dolls pram for my Grandaughter it seemed only right to make some bedding for it.
I wanted the lace  frill to be seen on this quilt when it's tucked in.

 Many quilts  have the frill stitched into the seam.
 I can't see the point in this as when the doll or baby is tucked in you don't get to see the frill at all.
This quilt tucks in nicely and  the frill sits beautifully on  the top for all to see.
I am quite amazed at how well this came out, considering I haven't done very much sewing in the last 5 years, and the fact I was making it up as I went along.
I still have  more work to do on this, but I am getting a bit forgetful when it comes to taking photos of finished projects, so I have started to take a few as I go along.  Which is just as well, as forgetting to take a photo of the finished project is exactly what happened with this one. 


The pram also needed a mattress,   so I cut  foam to fit the pram base and covered the foam in fabric. I made  a couple of fitted sheets, plus  a top sheet and pillow with matching  embroidery.
A couple of  fleece blankets trimmed with ribbon and lace to complete the bedding bundle.

Here is a photo of the pink fleecy blanket, top sheet and part of the pillow.

This project is the reason I haven't done much paper crafting lately.

I do hope Ellie will like this bundle of bedding along with the pram.
