Big soft-blue checks, knotted on a corner post and left to trail toward the floor. It's the simplest way to make a boy's crib look finished.
Our blue buffalo check is a faded sky blue and white with a slightly textured weave, so it reads relaxed and a little vintage rather than bold. It comes as one long sash, not a pre-tied bow, so you choose the look: a tight knot on the finial, or a full bow with long tails that reach the skirt.
Details:
- 100% washed cotton in Blue Buffalo Check
- Arrives as a long sash: tie it to the bow size and fullness you like
- Sold individually
- Personalization available: add a name or monogram to the tails
- Handmade to order in Alabama
Ways to Use It:
- Crib corner posts, finials and the end board of a Jenny Lind or spindle crib
- Curtain tie-backs in a blue and white nursery
- Hospital door hangers and the nursery door
- Baby shower and gender reveal decor, gift wrapping and newborn photos
- Wreaths, rocking chair backs and Fourth of July or picnic tablescapes
Good to Know:
- Most nurseries use two, one on each front crib post; four dresses all four corners
- Because it's cotton rather than wired ribbon, it ties soft and the tails hang straight instead of curling
- This is the same check as our Blue Buffalo Check Farmhouse Cotton Crib Skirt, so the bows match the skirt exactly
- Screens can make this blue look brighter than it is. If you're matching paint or a rug, order a Blue Buffalo Check fabric swatch first
- Also called a crib sash, nursery bow, or fabric crib bow
Care: Machine wash cold, tumble dry low, then simply retie.

Made to Order: Sewn when you order, in our Alabama studio.
A standard crib mattress is 28" × 52", and our pieces are cut to match it — 52" long rail covers, 28" short rail covers, and fitted sheets sized to that mattress. If your crib takes a standard mattress, no measuring is needed.
Crib skirt drops — farmhouse skirts are 20", ruffled skirts are 22". To find your drop, measure from just under the mattress support straight down toward the floor. Want a shorter drop? Tap Add a special request under the Add to Cart button, tell us your measurement, and we'll make it to that at no extra charge.
Rail cover drape — approximately 20" down each side of the rail, inside and out.
Mini cribs — sheets fit a 24" × 38" mattress, and most pieces can be made in mini sizing on request. Shop mini crib bedding →
Antique, imported, or non-standard crib? Send us your measurements — everything is cut to order.
Every piece is made from 100% cotton sourced from American mills — no synthetic blends, no flame-retardant treatments, no chemical finishes.
Pre-washed before we cut. Every yard is washed and dried in our studio before a single piece is cut, so your bedding arrives already soft and won't shrink on you at home. That relaxed, lived-in texture is the washed cotton at work — and it irons or steams to a crisp finish if you prefer that look.
Washing — machine wash cold on gentle, separately. Skip bleach and fabric softener; both break down natural cotton over time.
Drying — tumble dry on medium, separately. A quick toss in the dryer is the easiest way to release wrinkles between uses.
Ironing — optional, on medium heat. Avoid starch sprays. A handheld steamer works well too.
Every piece is sewn to order in our Alabama studio, so nearly every detail can be changed.
Color changes — swap any color on any product: ruffles, cording, accents, bows, ties, or the body of the piece itself. Mix and match across a set however you like. Color and fabric changes are always free of charge.
Monograms and personalization — add initials, a name, or a meaningful date, with your choice of font and thread color. $30 per piece.
Style and sizing — prefer a tailored look without ruffles? Need mini crib sizing? Both are available on request.
