| Home Made Crate Cover Help I'm making my own crate cover, bumper pads and mattress covers. I need U're Girls thoughts on making these (Please copy and past U're answers to the questions) 1. Would U rather have the crate cover with the sides and back able to come apart? 2. Would U rather have the backs and sides sewed together? 3. Where would U like to see the lace at?? A.(Lace at the bottoms only?) B.(Lace at the top of crates only?) C. (Lace around the door opening?) 4. Do any of U own Crate Covers? 5. If so what Type do U have 6. All 3 sewed together, back and side 7. All 3 back and sides unsewed 8. What do U like about it? 9. What don't U like about it? 10. What do U like to hold the front up with (Buttons or Ribbon) so U can get U're baby out when the door is opened? 11. Would U like Buttons on all 4 corners at the top of the crate? 12. If not Buttons what then? 13. On the mattress would U rather have velcro or zipper to enclose it so U can take it off to be washed? 14. On the bumper pads would U rather have velcro or lace ties to hook it on U're crate? I can't make up my mind which would be better. I found some beautiful Rose Fabric, Lace and Rose Buttons to match. I will be making 5 all together pretty soon. 2 Boys and 3 Girls, I want to make them all different. I have no pattern for these and that's usually the way I do 100% home made. Thanks for all U're input on this!! Last edited by TeddyandTiffy; 02-25-2008 at 01:22 PM. |

| Thanks for U post and I really enjoy seeing the different ideas U come up with. I still need U're thoughts... 1. If I make it with ties (Ribbons or maybe Ribbons with Lace on it??? Or trying to make some out of the fabric itself... Which would U like??) do U all think the puppies/Yorkies may get to them and chew on them??? 2. I could also make the whole cover on the sides as one piece and just have it open in the front. 3. Also I was thinking about putting velcro on the bottom of the cover so I could keep it in place without the puppies pulling it off, and maybe putting lace over that to cover it. If U can let me know what U think. I like the different ideas for I have 5 to make and I'd like each one to be different. |

| Still working on them, my Fathers' been in the hospital with the Flu last week and I've been visiting him lots, he just broke out yesterday! LOL! & with Sage in her 1st heat I've been walking our Boys a lot more so they aren't so upset with me for her being in heat lol. So I've been sewing today hope to get U all photos soon, no pattern used so it takes a little longer to figure them all out. Hugs, Lee |
