Quilted Fabric Crib Rail Guard Tutorial


This Quilted Fabric Crib Rail Guard Tutorial is an original design created by me. It is a simple pattern that even a beginner sewer could complete. This tutorial leads you step by step through designing and sewing a quilted crib rail guard protector.

Once all of your materials are gathered, this project should take about three hours to complete for one full length guard. Depending on the size of the rail that you are covering, it may take more or less time.

This 10 page tutorial is a PDF file which includes 38 color photos with 18 steps. This tutorial also has a simple formula to help you customize a design specifically for your crib rail. This design is intended for rails of uniform width. The best part about this project is that you will be able to match the fabric to the bedding in your child's nursery. And, if you want to cover multiple rails, it will be very affordable to do so.

Visit my Etsy shop, New England Quilter, to see my NO SEW Crib Rail Guard Tutorials as well.

Toys for Toddlers

These mamas know first hand what toys little ones like to play with. Each toy is handmade with love by these Fabulous Moms.

Felted Purple Wavy Ball by
Valeriesgallery

This ball is crocheted and felted with 100% wool and stuffed with polyfil. Any toddler will love playing with this ball that is inside friendly. It is just the right size for a wee one: 5 inches (12.5 cm) in diameter. Valerie made one of these for her grandson and it is his favorite toy. I have bought two of these felted balls for my son and he loves them too!

Children’s Soft Fabric Feel Me Book – Patchwork Ponies by Sparetime Crafts

This artist goes fabric shopping with her little girl. Her daughter loves to touch all the different fabric textures, and see all the colors. So she decided to make a book featuring all different textures. Each page features a different fabric texture feel to it. With plenty of different colors. Front and back cover, is vinyl over some cute patchwork ponies. There is corduroy, satin, velor, terry, fuzzy, and mesh, and more. Some have ribbon tags, and satin cording (which have all been double stitched.)

Bright Fabric Blocks by New England Quilter

My little guy is going through a phase where he throws everything. So, I made him some fabric blocks to play with. Now when I get hit in the head, it won't hurt quite so much! These fabric blocks are made with stimulating patterned cotton fabrics. Machine wash on gentle and air dry. Each block measures approximately 3 inches square. Great for teething babes.
