. . . disaster reigns!! I started to do a major sort and clean a week or so ago, but then I remembered that I needed to make bibs for an upcoming baby shower. This couple has decided not to find out what they're having beforehand and I realized that the few bibs I had left in my stash were definitely boy or girl. As in pink and frilly or blue and all boy. It's been a long time since I went to a shower where the gender was unknown.
I pondered designs. I ransacked my stash of flannel--which ran to mostly pinks and blues. Hmmm. . . An already messy sewing room began to look as if a tornado had struck.
I usually start my bib making by cutting a bunch of bib shaped blanks, and so I began.
The grey polka dot and the red polka dot seemed to be good choice for neutral bibs, and I began with the grey. I decided on a lamb theme and began with a Debbie Mumm design from her Baby Oh Baby design set.
I have about six bibs done now, and plan to keep on stitching until I have a nice pile of them again. So. Much. Fun!! ♥
How adorable! A good choice for neutral, non-gender-specific, unisex bibs. (I should give you my blanks because I don't know people having babies and probably never will.)
ReplyDeleteAnd boy! Do I know about that tornado! Sometimes it's hard to recover from it. I wish I didn't have to be quite so specific in filing my fabric, but I think I'll stick with the system as it is.
Baby showers are a constant in my life, and I love going to them and seeing all the sweet little items.
DeleteMy room hasn't improved. Yesterday was busy for other reasons so I didn't get any more stitching done. Hopefully today!
