Embroidered Baby Bib

Ever since I taught myself to embroider a couple months ago, I've been obsessed with trying out my new skills. I ran across this tutorial for a baby bib and was excited to make one for Connor.

I pretty much followed all their instructions up until the rick-rack at the end. The tutorial only has you putting the rick-rack halfway around the bottom, but I liked it better going all the way around. They also have their rick-rack sewn between the front and back piece, but I put mine layered on the top piece.

When I put the bib on him, he seemed very interested in studying it.

And showing off his new clapping skills! 3 cheers for my new bib!

Almost too much work for him to actual use and get messy, but I like it!

    Super cute!!! I wish I knew how to embroider. It would probably end up like my cross stitch projects though - 17 projects started and not finished. Love the picture of Connor clapping. Precious!
