I did the same as abouve except made 4 separate "pillow" cases for each side, attached velcro at the ends so it wraps around the last "pole" on each side. It makes the pad sit tighter.

I purchased everything I needed to make my Grandson's homemade bumper pads at Walmart. All you need is foam padding (it comes in a long roll in the material department) and about 3 yards of material. Roll out the foam flat and measure the lenght of the crib (less 1 inch on all ends) and measure the width (10 to 12 inches). You will need 4 pieces of foam (2 sides & 2 ends) Use a black marker to draw the measurements on the form before cutting. Measure 2 pieces of material with each piece of form you have cut out (add 1/2 inch to all sides & ends). Sew the 2 pieces together, leaving one end open to insert foam padding. Turn inside out. It will look like a long pillow case. Insert form into the open end. Close the opening by folding ends and sewing together. Making ties: Cut strips of material (1 inch wide & 12 inches in length). I used 4 ties to each bumper pad. Fold over and sew (leaving the ends open). Turn inside out. Tie a knot in each end of tie. Use a marker to mark on the finished bumper pad where you want each tie to be attatched.(I attached the ties to the top of the bumper pads) Fold the tie in half. Hand stitch the fold of the tie to the bumper pad. Do this to each area you have marked.Tie the knot ends around the crib rail.That's all. Your done.
