DIY Matching Baby Booties, Bib & Hat

I've been seeing a lot of great up-cycling blog posts about taking an old piece of clothing and reusing it to make something new. I found this old shirt I used to love and thought it would be cute fabric for some baby accessories.
How could I resist these cute booties? I used a pattern from Stardust Shoes.

I made the bib by tracing an old one for size. I used stretchy cotton fabric for the front and terry cloth for the back.
Baby hats are too darn cute not to have, so I made sure to save some extra fabric for one. These were made using a tutorial from Make it and Love it.
Hope the set looks cute on the baby!
