How to make
an
adorable Halloween Pumpkin BABY BIB
For this cute little
Halloween Pumpkin Baby Bib you will need some scraps of fabric and felt,
double fold bias tape, rick-rack, and a small piece of quilt batting. |
 |
First let's
make a pattern. Take a plain white piece of computer paper and cut the
paper down the middle. Now you should have two pieces of paper that
measure 8 1/2" X 5 1/4". You will only need one of these.
As shown in the photo fold the paper in
half and cut a curve at the lower and side edge. |
 |
Now open the
pattern and cut a curved edge at the top (where the baby's neck will
be). |
 |
Put "BABY BIB" on your pattern piece so
you can use it over and over again.
(This easy to sew bib makes wonderful
gifts, and it is also a cute craft and sells quickly at local crafts
shows.)
Pin and cut two baby bibs from fabric and
one from quilt batting.
|
 |
Place the quilt batting on
the table first and then the two fabric bibs PRETTY SIDES TOGETHER as
shown in the photo. Pin in place at the top edge. |
 |
Stitch using the pressure
foot as your guide as shown in the photo. |
 |
Flip the one fabric bib
around so that the quilt batting is sandwiched in the middle.
Press in place. |
 |
Pin the rick-rack in place
up at the neck line.
Cut from black felt a pumpkin face. Pin
in place as shown in the photo. Do not pin near the bottom because
you will be adding seam binding there and you do not want the face to
get in the way.
Stitch rick-rack and the face in place
using a straight stitch and stitching close to the edge of the felt. |
|
|
Cut a piece of
double fold bias tape long enough to go around the bib and around the
baby's neck to tie in place. Find the
center of the bib at the bottom and find the center of the double fold
bias tape and pin in place. Make sure the double fold bias tape is opened
so that you can "sandwich" the bib between the bias tape as shown in the
photo.
Pin in place. Stitch close to the edge to
hold the bias tape in place.
