bibs





I have a baby shower to go to tomorrow. I had 3 of these bibs already made and stashed away, so I just had to finish making the last one. I love how they turned out and I think they make a nice set. My kids don't want me to give them away. I guess I'd call that success. :)

  1. Those are a)awesome and b)a wonderfully original gift!

    They'll be a hit (and when I find a baby shower to crash, I'm going to have to make some!)

  10. Cute, cute. I love the trim fabric. I love how such a simple fabric like that can accent so many different main fabrics and gives projects pop!

    Hey fellow quilters, I recently took over blogging for my local quilt shop. Would love for you to stop by and say hey. The shop is new to the blog world, so hoping I can pull in some of my blogging community to kick off our new adventure.

  12. The bibs are so cute! It is also a neat small project for me to learn how to use my stippling attachment. I am new to quilting. My grandson will have holiday bibs! I see your bib tutorial in the right hand column. Thank you!

    Those bibs are so cute - it seems a shame to let the baby wear them to actually eat!
