A Dr. Seuss nursery will be beautiful.

I haven't been able to locate any patterns to crochet any Dr. Seuss character items.
There are a few cross stitch patterns available which could be used in a crochet project:

There's a cute birth sampler cross stitch pattern availabe here:

I found a resource for fabric and quilt kits:

Wall letters to spell the baby's name would be a good idea:

I believe these could me made by purchasing wooden letters and gluing images onto them.

Here are a couple of pages with pictures of nursery ideas:

If the walls are paintable you could use a projector and paint the characters you like on the walls.

Also, framed photos of characters would be decorative:

Hope this helps.
