So much of this room was a collaboration of friends and family, and over 90% of it is used or handmade. I don’t know if there has ever been a smaller bedroom recorded to date, but this would give it a run for its money.

And in case you forgot, this was the before:

Here is the finished crib quilt for the little boy… so cozy! I used scrap fabric from the bumpers {coming soon}, 7 different fat quarters, and Moda’s sock monkey flannel for the backing.

Thank you SUSAN! I love that you took the time to match the nursery… these look ADORABLE. {more pics to come}.

For those of you who don’t know Susan, lemme tell you a little bit about her:

• She leaves the sweetest comments on my blog, always a joy to read
• Look at this gift – even though we’ve never met, she’s captured my style perfectly.
• She is genuine and supportive. She supports handmade, and if I ran a marathon, I’d bring her along to keep me going.
• Check out her blog, Whatsoever Things are Beautiful to learn more about the beautiful Susan!

I used one to make a little basket liner for the nursery, with non-matching ribbon scraps to tie it on. In a perfect world I wanted to make little white terrycloth liners, but when free fabric and ribbon is just sitting around, I’d rather use it. {You can get crazy holding on to scraps of fabric. I usually try to think of a use for the fabric before keeping it, or holding on to it for a month or two so I don’t become a clutterbug. – my husband is going to laugh at that comment}

It started with a facebook message from my brother:

And then I got this in the mail:

Can you believe this was made from these? My brother told me that he googled an image of a horse, printed it out and created his own pattern. Inside the horse is a bell… and it’s our little secret that it’s in the shape of a ghost. He finished this project in one day. It sure looked like it was a cozy sweater, but it makes an even cozier stuffed horse!

Thank you LANE! You are a genius! I LOOOOOVE this… by far one of the coolest things I’ve ever gotten. If we lived closer to each other, we could make some cool stuff! You could recover my furniture and paint murals on my walls, and I could… eat all your food! Miss you…
