sew and tell: baby bibs

It's been awhile since I've fired up the sewing machine, but I was inspired to take on a new project as we get closer to the arrival of our niece or nephew. So here you have it: baby bibs.



While these were fairly simple to put together, the biggest challenge was finding fun fabrics that would work for either a girl or boy. I figured you can't go wrong with doughnuts, monkeys, sea creatures and Jayhawks. (Some may disagree.)

Very, very cute! When my son was a baby, he had reflux and would spit up all the time so he always had a bib on and these would have been much cuter than the ones we had to use. :)

These bibs are one of the sweetest gifts Baby Lindeman has received! Aunt Carrie is a fabulous seamstress. What you can't tell from the picture, is how incredibly soft the fabric is. I can't wait until we can start using them...although they are just so cute, I almost hate to get them dirty. Thanks, Carrie!

Carrie - I'm placing my order for an adult-sized blankie right now! But I can't decide between the monkeys, donuts or polka dots. These are freakin' A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E.

Seriously, you could go into business selling these bibs! May I suggest one with a Wildcat instead of that bird though?? :)
