Well, I hope you are busy making clutches for your next craft show! This week I promised to show you a new project using the same die. Here it is.
How cute are these! I keep looking at the purse die and thought this would make a great bib. I only used one of the dies in the set.
Supplies:
1/4 yard of each front and back fabric. This will make 2 bibs.
one strip 45" x 2 1/2" of contrasting fabric for ties
Cut a front and back from your fabrics.
Fold the 2 1/2" strip in half and then fold the raw edges into the center and iron.
Fold each outside end in about 1/2" first.. Then fold in half again.
Next sew close to outside folded edge. Make sure to sew each end too.
Fold the tie in half and cut into two pieces.
Next, fold down the rounded side of the top fabric down 2 1/4" to make a flap. Iron a crease and open back up.
Lay the ties just below the crease with the long ends inside. Pin.
Lay the lining on top, right sides together and pin.
Leave an opening for turning.
Sew a 1/4" seam and turn everything to the outside. Iron the seams. Fold down the top rounded edge to the crease and top stitch 1/8" from the edge. Turn in the opening at the seam and top stitch around the rest of the bib. You are done! You can also use Accucut and Accuquilt dies to embellish even more. Here I used the Teddy Bear Die. Check out their sites and you can find lots of more choices! Animals and bug dies.
This project took minutes to make and again is great for craft fairs or baby shower gifts! Cutting 8 layers at a time makes 4 bibs.
See you next week!
