My daughter with the 4 boys wanted Boston Red Sox comforters for 3 of them. I could not find matching sheets in twin size, so I bought navy sheets and bought baseball material and sewed it in the hems of the sheets and pillowcases. What do you think?

I think it's adorable and a great idea.

I think you are a very clever Grandma! They should love them.

:) Way to go,beachlady! I used that same print to make our baseball fan son a tissue box cover. Pillowcases are great.

great idea and you found something you liked.....

littlehud 12-14-2008 07:10 PM

Cool. I never would have thought of that.

mimisharon 12-14-2008 07:35 PM

They are gorgeous! I bet you saved the hems in those sheets, too. Do you ever have the hem thread break after so many washings?

I bet those grands are going to be thrilled!

Hugs,

Nope, not cheating, and what thrilled grands you'll have!
