Ellie outgrew all of her baby bibs (and they were all getting so stained and yucky), but when I priced some bigger bibs, they were all about $5.00 each. I find that a bit pricey, so I made her some. I cut them bigger than the store-bought ones so they would fit all the way down to her belly and cover more of her clothes. I bought 1/4 yard of 4 different fabrics and got 2-3 bibs out of each.
Then I just stitched the double fold edging around and added a button at the neck. I didn't do the edging the fancy way with no stitches showing, I just sewed. It's a bib-I really don't care if there was a line of thread. Anyway, she now has these two designs plus some purple
Tinkerbelle ones and some with butterflies and sequins. I finished those a long time ago and these two the other day so I didn't have pix of the others. I think I will make a few more for good measure since she easily goes through 3-4 a day. Sometimes it takes me longer to get to the laundry than it should!!!

These turned out super cute. Love the fabric too. You are just too clever anymore. After seeing the photos with the stroganoff, and can see why you need a bunch!
