Progress! Version 3.0. I'm pretty sure this is the Progress! Version 3.0. I'm pretty sure this is the solution I like for the dancing sugarplum/candies over the bed. I've tried about eleventy other variations and this is the one that is less likely to make you hate me as you make this upcoming Snug In Their Beds pattern. As a bonus, it's the one I think looks the best!

NOTE: That's 20 gauge white floral wire for the hanger and an iridescent chenille stem for the candy dream. (Same stems used with All Through The House for the trees.)
I still need to figure out a good way to secure the quilt on one side, so little hands can open it and tuck the dreamer in. Right now it's a straight pin. I'm also thinking I need to provide an option for a solid head and footboard. The slats look nice but they do take some patience!
