Dang! I'm with the other gal on going into the baby bedding business!
I guess they figure the "Custom Made & Made In America" tags allow them to charge crazy a$$ prices.
I am sure you can buy/make a set better than that. It was easier to buy the nice solid sheets than make them, since Sandy is right about what happens to the crib sheets.
See if you can find a set of the re-useable waterproof bed pads that they use in the hospital. They are cottony and will protect the mattress without the crinkly vinyl. Two meant that I could toss the icky one in the wash with the sheets and have a back up ready to go. They transition well to the toddler/big kid bed when they make the switch and are learning to sleep the night through without diapers. Again, much more absorbent that the vinyl mattress cover.
Crib sheets are easy peasy to make if you have a serger. I made several but it might be less to buy them with the cost of fabric.
Those bumpers are dangerous.
I bought a crib quilt from Pottery Barn and thought it was expensive but those prices are crazy.
It is insane! So much so I wonder if it's not a typo?
Those colors are all over right now and I like the idea of getting the queen set and having enough fabric for a valance as well as all the other stuf mentioned. TJ max has a couple sets in this color for between $50.00 and $80.00 and any mainstream store has it too; walmart, target, Kohls (use your 30% coupon) Bed Bath (use your 20% and your $5.00 off on the same item). $470.00 would feed a family of four for two weeks. Just saying.
I wish I had customers stupid enough to pay those prices.
LOL:lol: I know there will be those that buy that set, but It is ridiculous. Ruby I LOVE your suggestion! How clever. Sorry still laughing at the price:lol:
Wow! Yeah that is a lovely set, but the price is outrageous! I'm sure there are people that pay it though!
Lol I knew other quilters would agree with me. I actually found the exact fabric at fabric.com, I'm going to make her a quilt, matching sheet from polka dot fabric and a diaper stacker. I haven't had a new born in 11 years so I didn't know about the bumper pads so ill skip them. Thanks for all the suggestions!!
That's wonderful you were able to find the fabric!. I was going to say if the crib, chair and kitty came with it I would get it.
