About this product
A ticking skirt along the floor and two solid green sashes at the posts — the stripe stays quiet, the bows do the talking, and neither one touches the rail.
Fine pine green stripes run down a natural cotton ground, with a narrower stripe in the natural color set between them. The skirt is cut flat — pleated center panels on all four sides, split corners that wrap the crib legs, a 20-inch drop — which is the construction a stripe needs: gathers would break every line into a zigzag. The two sashes are solid cypress green, a clear saturated green against the softer ticking, and each arrives as a long length of fabric so you tie the size and fullness yourself.
What's Included:
- (1) four-sided tailored crib skirt in pine green ticking — pleated center panels, split corners, 20-inch finished drop, fits a standard crib mattress
- (2) large cypress green bows — each arrives as a long sash you tie to your preferred size and fullness
Details:
- 100% washed cotton — soft, breathable, machine washable
- Tailored skirt construction — pleated center panels on all four sides, split corners that wrap around the crib legs, not gathered
- The flat deck sits between the mattress and the crib platform and holds its position when the mattress gets lifted
- Bows are solid cypress green, not striped
- Fits a standard convertible crib, including Jenny Lind and turned-spindle styles
- Any color can be changed; mini crib sizing and custom drops available — leave a note at checkout
- Handmade to order in our Alabama studio
Good to Know:
- Ticking goes by several names — ticking stripe, mattress stripe, French ticking, grain sack stripe — and a crib skirt goes by crib dust ruffle or crib bed skirt. Same pieces
- Cut flat rather than gathered because of the stripe: flat pleated panels keep every line running straight from the mattress to the floor
- Two greens on purpose — the ticking is a muted woven green against natural, and the sashes are a solid cypress green at full strength. The contrast is what keeps the crib from going flat
- The matching ticking rail cover is sold separately, and the cover and skirt are also offered together as a set
- The sashes work well outside the nursery — hospital door hangers, wreaths, curtain tie-backs and newborn photo props
- Green and natural reads gender neutral, at home in a woodland, botanical, hunting or midcentury modern nursery. It carries December without being a Christmas print, so it stays up all year
