After browsing the new mama's Pinterest board for inspiration, this is what I came up with:
The parents are big baseball fans, so I was excited to use a little bit of this baseball fabric I picked up at a yard sale! Of course, I had to make something with some super cute ties!
Peanut Butter and Jelly always go together.
I wanted to do something a little extra for these bibs, so I found THIS pattern and embroidered it onto some flannel. Of course, I don't have an embroidery machine, so all of that stitching was done by hand. Let's just say it kept me busy during a road trip...
I found the frog fabric in my stash and HAD to use it (I think it was a yard sale find as well). The little appliqued frogs were totally an after thought. They were left over from cutting the hole out of the bib for the neck. What do you think? Do you like them?
I really love using towels to back my bibs with. SO easy and cheap and effective.
While we're talking about bibs, I also made this cutie for a neighbor girl who just turned one. I snapped a quick picture about five minutes before the party (are you surprised?), so this is all I've got. It's a toddler sized bib - about twice as big as the twin ones, and I stitched around one of those pink butterflies to secure the bib/backing a tad more. It was SO FUN to get to work with girly fabric!
Since I was in the mood, I decided to whip up a few more bibs for my messy, growing toddler boys. I ended up making six (three for each of them). I picked up some flannel at a yard sale for a STEAL awhile ago. Most of it was smaller pieces, so I had to mix and match a little. I like the extra weight flannel gives to bibs.
Here they are!
