Finally got the bedskirt done! It kept getting put aside for other things.to get done. Here are a few pictures. I have one that shows the whole thing on the bed (couldn't get a very good picture). I did the hem with the wave stitch on my serger - I love the look of it and have used it a fair bit. Then the rest are pictures of three of the sides.

ps.where are the swirl design and b-fly designs from,please?

blueeyedblonde by blueeyedblonde 28 Apr 2014

Thanks. Oh, darn, sorry I didn't put something up sooner - lol. The swirls are from dbc, but they are by basketkase #9189447-102009, but not sure if the nbr on her site is the same.
The Butterflies I'm not sure where I got them.

blueeyedblonde by blueeyedblonde 28 Apr 2014

OK - I checked again and the swirls are ones that I bought around xmas and when you go to her site point to designs and a menu drops down, click on everything else - the page it takes you to go to the left side down to the 23rd row and that's the one.

wow seems to cover my response - so imaginative and pretty! Great solution to covering box spring and very unique. I would have been nuts trying to decide what all designs to use, etc. Great job!!

It was difficult to decide! I did the horses for on my hubbies side and the dolphins and butterflys on mine and then on the end I had the two meet in the middle with the double horse heads.

Thanks! Yes it was a lot of hoopings and I never thought about counting them - might have to do that.

blueeyedblonde by blueeyedblonde 28 Apr 2014

I just went and counted them - there were 61 hoopings!

Great job!! I made one and vowed it would be my last. I do remember the idea to use a flat sheet as your starting point, Kay

This is beautiful! I am way behind in getting mine made, too. Care to share any pointers on how you made/assembled the skirt itself? I am very new to my serger. I'll have to see if mine does a wave stitch. This is very nice. I know your are quite proud of it!

1 comment
blueeyedblonde by blueeyedblonde 27 Apr 2014

Thanks! Further to what I said in the answer below (to babash) After I embroidered the three panels, I joined them and then hemmed them using the wave stitch (a special stitch on my serger), then joined that to the sheet I had cut to fit inbetween the boxspring and mattress.

Wow what a lot of work. Can't wait to see what you do for a quilt. That is outstanding. I could imagine the trouble you had doing it all in one length of fabric.

blueeyedblonde by blueeyedblonde 27 Apr 2014

Thanks! We have a great quilted bedspread, but it's too warm and we only use a sheet so with the bedskirt it hides the box spring and beneath it.
I had four panels of which I did embroidery on 3 of them (the fourth was close in color but had tiny white polka dots) and then joined them.

This is great. Never thought of doing this. Maybe do something
like this for my daughters best friend. She is having another baby.
