A little bib tutorial




Use coordinating flannel fat quarters, right side together.  There is room for two bibs. 

Using a pen or pencil, outline the pattern on the material.




The pattern is from this website.



After outlining the pattern, pin the material together.


Then sew 1/4" within the drawn line, leaving a generous opening at the bottom for turning inside out.


Try to sew a little more accurately than I did!



Once it is sewn, cut out the bib.

Iron on a little piece of fusible facing to reinforce the button hole.


Leave a wider seam allowance at the bottom when you cut out the bib. Turn right side out, and add the button hole, and iron flat.  Tie a small knot which will be the "button" in the button hole.



The flannel is so soft and absorbent--aren't they cute?

Oh my goodness these are absolutely precious! Love the fabric you chose, and the knot 'buttonhole' is so clever!
