I'M IN LOVE WITH A DUVET (AND A PILLOW)!
It took me some months (shame on me! ) to complete this EASY project. For little D's room, i had bought some roman shades, a duvet cover for single bed and some pillow covers from VERTBAUTED, a French company. I'm not at all at Disney characters and other kids cartoon heroes. I actually hate seeing them in children's rooms AND clothes. So when i found a collection with beautiful and SIMPLE robots i bought everything i found. They were on sale and found only some of the items. I knew that i wouldn't use the duvet cover for a few years but i found a really big pillow case.
I cut the seams and i had a really long but a little narrow piece of fabric with amazing red robot sketches (or should i call them designs?). From a fabric store in Athens i bought a very fine thin cotton fabric in red. I sew them together, leaving some of the red at both sides. I did this because the duvet i wanted to put in was bigger at width.
I had a leftover piece which i used to make a little pillow case. And to remind you without have to scroll:
This is closer and you see the designs better i think. Unfortunately we can't have the crib perfectly made, because it's stokke's sleepi which has oval shape. Otherwise it is a wonderful crib and little D uses it since day 1 in the house at mini version and now as bed with both sides still attached.
The robot designs remind me of this wallpaper by Aimee Wilder:

And this by Proverb too (ferm LIVING has one similar, if you are interested):
