That’s a good idea – it will make the top edge look fancier. I would love to see a photo on our flickr group: http://www.flickr.com/groups/merrimentdesign/ Thanks for commenting!

I love the way you finished the edges when attaching the ruffles to the base piece. Thanks for sharing. I’m making skirts for my girls bunk beds! My older daughter, in the top bunk, has asked for a very short skirt to cover the edge of the bed, and I plan on using your instructions to make it for her!

Well I just finished making the crib skirt in dupioni silk, and it looks superb. The directions were easy to follow and it fit my crib perfectly. Thank you!
