My kiddo is a funny creature. She loves Halloween and all things Spooky, but at the same time, she adores pink, and wants everything to have a heart on it because, and I quote “Mama, I love LOVE!”. Her current favorite pajamas are a set with old-school Care Bears on them that my mom found at Goodwill. If they’re clean, she’s wearing them. But, just like the residents of Halloween Town, she wants Christmas to be scary. ![]()
She’s currently in a toddler bed (converted from a crib). Since crib sheets don’t come with pillowcases, we don’t have any matching ones. So I decided to make a few for her bed, that are just for her. Plus it was something I could craft for Christmas, in my effort to give her something handmade each year.
I used the burrito method, and they went together so fast. All the fabrics came from Michael’s. Old-school Care Bears in a soft pink, with a deep pink border of scribbled hearts, and Nightmare Before Christmas. I did end up topstitching down the decorative narrow band, because she’s 3, and I didn’t want to find Cheerio’s tucked in there. I can totally see making more of these as she grows up, and her interests change.
