Baby Bibs

These baby bibs are way cute and are super easy to sew!

This instructions and pattern for this bib came from Chickpea Sewing Studio.

You will need:

• Fabric: 1/3 yard fun fabric for the front, 1/3 yard coordinating flannel, terry cloth, corduroy, etc for the back.
• Thread
• Snap
• Pattern

Directions:

• Prewash fabric.
• Fold one piece of fabric (wrong sides together) and pin the pattern along the fold. Cut the pattern out. Repeat for the other side of fabric.

• Pin the front and back, wrong sides together. Sew the front and back together using a double stitch and 1/4 inch seam allowance. Leave a small opening (about 1") for turning.
• Turn the bib inside out and press with a warm iron.
• Edgestich around the bib, making sure that the open hem has been tucked in. The edgestich should sew the open end closed.

Baby Receiving Blanket

Gather the following supplies:
2 (45") pieces of coordinating flannel fabric (one piece for front, one for back)
Matching thread
Salad plate (if rounding corners)
Rotary cutter and mat or scissors
Sewing machine and notions

Instructions:

1. Pre-wash and iron fabric, trim ends
2. Pin right sides of fabric together
3. For rounded corners: use a salad plate as a pattern, and place it in the corner of the fabric. Cut around the outer edge of the salad plate to create a rounded edge.
4. Using a 1" seam, sew the edges of the flannel together. Leave a small opening (about 4-6").
5. Turn the blanket right side out through the opening.
6. Pin the open edge of the blanket closed.
7. Sew a decorative stitch (I used a zig-zag), around the edge of the blanket using a 3/8" seam. This stitch should sew the open edge of the blanket closed.
