She wants to use them to wrap up in with her little girl & for her to be able to use when she has her cousins over. She is also planning way ahead so she will have them a keepsake when her daughter goes to collage. She is only six now.

How Cute Nice work

Tammie

That is so cute. I haven't seen anything like that.

I just saw your quilts...I like it...did you take the snaps off the bibs or strings or just left them on?

Love them both ...so did you applique the bibs to the top? someone wants me to make the bib one for this christmas...better get started.
then was it actually quilted or tied to finish it?

I removed the snaps from the back of the bib very carefully so I would not cut into the front, some of them were velcro and I did the same thing. I machine appliqued the bibs to the top using a decorative stitch and tried to stay close to the edge, sometimes the edging was too thick so I used it as a guide. The bibs were the easiest to do and a lot of fun. I did find that you need to go very slow if doing a decorative stitch .

Thank you for looking and commenting on them, both were a lot of fun and I am finally giving them to the receipieant tonight.

What a great idea. I never thought about that. I have a great nephew coming in July and I think I will get my Niece to save me some of his clothes after he outgrows them and baby blanket and bibs and etc. What a great way to go down memory lane later.

That is such a wonderful keepsake for a child. Love it. Can't wait to try and make one.

Quilting is my hobby and I enjoy it that is really a great idea and i too would like to see it. I think it would look lovely and may give me a chance to learn more about quilting and maybe try it out.

Cool idea. I have some in my kitchen drawers that the babies have outgrown. Might have to try it.
