I've written, and have been published, in many decorative magazines with this information....it's plain not safe, don't do it. It's all the rage, but not safe at all. I've made "puffy" palm trees out of fabric for a jungle theme for our first son. And our second son's nursery was a fabric "scene" with sewn stuffed waves, sand and a sun complete with black "shades." Came out cute....and a really small area to work with. Good luck with your babe!
