Attach the bias tape along both short edges and one long edge. Leave one long edge unfinished until the end. Corners are tricky. Only one more corner! To sew down the corners, pin right up to the corner.

Stitch in the ditch. This will help keep things neat and give additional protection against coming undone when more layers get added onto these seams throughout construction.

STEP 6: Following step 5 for each of your other three layers will give you a beautifully layered and textured top. Place another piece next to the first on an ironing board with both right sides facing down. Then press as needed until all edges are straightened out or even slightly curved if preferred. STEP 8: The neat, straight hem is now hidden within the folds of fabric. Turn it up and press. STEP 9: Sewing on a hem is the perfect way to give your ruffled skirt clean lines.

Start with an easy stitch close to the edge if you want your ruffle pieces to have nice creases down their middle. STEP To make a gathered skirt, change your sewing machine stitch to a long one. Sew basting stitches at the top raw edge of the dress as close together as you can and about 0. This way also protects you against breaks in stitching that could happen when using only 1 row of basting stitches. This will create a ruffle that is not too short and not too long to look perfect at any length.

STEP Repeat the process to all the ruffle pieces to give them an exact look. STEP Take the gathered end of one ruffle and line it up on top of the base piece, right sides together. Place it so that its raw edge is 0. They can get caught in moving fabric during construction or wear it if left unattended after pinning around an entire garment which may lead to next-to-impossible removal without damaging something else along the way.

STEP Sew as close to the edge of each ruffle and turn down at corners with your threaded needle. The standard for crib sheets is cotton. Polyester is a synthetic fabric used in all types of materials, clothing, and bedding sets. For parents who want to stick with eco-friendly, natural fiber, bamboo may be the choice for you.

Crib skirts all function the same , but depending on who you purchase from, they may have 3 or 4 sides that hang down. If your crib sits against a wall, you can skip the skirt for that side. Tack each panel to the support platform under the crib mattress so the skirt just dusts the floor. Hold the top thread and start pushing the fabric towards the center. Because the strips are so long, I did this on both sides of the strip meeting in the middle.

Now that all the ruffles are finished, we are ready to sew them to the side pieces. Before we do that though, we need to mark where we will sew them. The top ruffle will be sewn along the top of the side fabric. After the side fabric is marked, pin your bottom ruffle to the bottom line. Once pinned, sew the ruffle to the side fabric.

I used a zig zag stitch. Back stitch in the beginning and end. Repeat with the other ruffles. You're done with the first side piece, yay! Isn't is beautiful? Pin one short side piece to the short side of your main piece.

Again sew just under the stitch line, back stitching at the beginning and end. I used the zig zag stitch here, as well. Sew your other short side on the main piece using the same directions and then sew the front side piece on. The next step is to sit and stare at your work and get even more excited for baby to come. I know I am! One project down, lots to go!
