The boots for the baby can even become your first thing sewn with their own hands. And so that everything goes smoothly follow the recommendations below in the article.

Types of sides in a crib. Which sides are better?

  • The easiest and most well -proven option is sides of cotton fabrics with thin synthetic winter filler. Such sides are easy to sew, you can wash, and at a price they will cost inexpensively, on average, two times cheaper than purchased. In addition, mom will be able to choose a fabric herself and create a unique design of the crib for her baby.

Tip: Make two sets at once, so that one is being washed and dries, you can use the other

  • Pinces with removable covers consist of inserts and covers of light natural fabric. Covers are put on pillowcases and fastened with a zipper. The advantage is that you can sew several sets of external covers and wash only them. But this approach is doubtful from the point of view of hygiene, because the child can stain pillowcases and inserts therefore, it is unlikely that the sides for the crib will remain dry and clean for a long time. In addition, compared with the first option, the fabric consumption increases, which means the price of the product is growing. The need to use fasteners and lightning is also embarrassed, because they have small details that the child can swallow.

  • Pillow sides. They are interesting in that you can use more filler for them, because in the case of small pads of 30 to 50 centimeters, the thickness of the side can be increased, therefore the bed will be even warmer and cozy. For attaching the pillow, they are not interconnected in any way, they are simply fixed on the rods using ties or Velcro.

Slices size in a crib

Standard dimensions of the crib 120 by 60 cm, all the patterns given below are oriented to this size. Nevertheless, there are exceptions, so before the purchase of materials it will be useful to measure everything. The height of the sides can be different, sometimes they close all the walls of the crib, sometimes only half or a third, it all depends on the wishes of the parents.

To sew the sides as in the photo, use a synthetic winterizer 1-1.5 cm thick and cotton fabric: chintz or calico.

The synthetic winterizer must be flashed, otherwise it will be poorly held and quickly deformed when washing.

The thinner the synthetic winterizer, the easier it will be to flash it, so if you have a mechanical sewing machine, it is better to opt for a seal not thicker than 1.5 cm. An electric sewing machine, most likely, can cope with thicker material. The ties on which the sides will stay is convenient to make from one piece of fabric, the raw edges simply bend so that they are in the middle, after which only one seam is stuck along the edge of the tie. The very pattern of sides for the crib is very simple:

In addition to the sides that close wooden rods in the stores, you can find many models that obscure the crib by two -thirds or only a third. Such sides have an indisputable advantage - they do not limit the overview of the baby so much and allow him to observe what is happening around. The bumpers with cubs presented in the photo close the bed by two -thirds and decorated with a pretty ruff. The pattern for them will be this:

The length of the frill presented on the pattern can be changed (there it is one and a half times larger than the size of the fabric to which is sewn). If a firing is one and a half times longer than the fabric, then not lush folds will turn out, if it is more twice, then the folds will be very voluminous. In general, it is convenient to sew ruffles from a strip of fabric, which is longer than necessary. But if your fabric is overwhelmed, do not be discouraged, hang a thread into the needle exactly the length that the finished collar should be obtained. Then fold the fabric with "accordion" and pierce it with a needle. After that, it remains only to evenly distribute the folds along the entire extension of the thread. To quickly sew the frill, put it between two layers of fabric, as shown in the figure below, as sewing, put the new folds with your fingers and gently trim all three layers of fabric.

We leave the allowances for the seams - 5 cm each, since there will be a lot of filler in the pillows. The synthetic winterizer is suitable both thin and thick, you do not need to sew it, just stuff the covers tightly. The pillows are small, therefore, he will not be lost in one direction.

How to choose fabric for sides in a crib

No matter how far the production of synthetic fibers came in, natural fabrics still remain the best. They “breathe” perfectly air and hygroscopic, which help maintain the temperature and humidity that are suitable for the human body. In the children's textile industry, the main raw material material has been left for a long time cotton. If you tell you in the store that this fabric chintz, calico, satin or you see the word c on the label oTTON, then in front of you is the same clap, just different types of fabric from this material are of different names.

Which filler for sides in a crib to choose

The choice is small: only the optimal fillers can only become Syntephop and his modern analogue hollofiberwhich is allowed to use in goods for newborns. Hollofiber is better kept in shape and more wear -resistant, but more expensive in price. With a stretch to this list you can add battingbut it does not keep its shape and embarrasses that for its manufacture, waste of textile industry is used. But natural fillers, such as animal hair or fluff, are definitely not worth choosing, firstly, these are strong allergens, and secondly, natural fibers can become a tidbit for parasites.

What to sew the sides in the crib for a girl

In the room of the little princess, all kinds of turning, folds and ruffles will probably be appropriate.
