My Sleeved Bibs

Last week I made a selection of sleeved bibs for a friend which has motivated me to get into production again! I designed the pattern earlier in the year and have made a few here-and-there but think they're worthy of a bit more of my time. I really love selecting the fabrics, and it's fun matching bibs to babies personalities, (don't mock it until you've tried it!).Roo was reluctant to model any for me today, but I will post photos if she ever obliges.
I have been making sleeved bibs for my own kids and friends' newborns for the last few years as they are so handy and a gift that no-one else would have given them already. I used make them in a raglan style with binding around the edges, but find my new design is unique and a lot neater.


Trick or Treat

I'm not a huge fan of the Trick or Treat process, but the younger generation seem to be taking it on. We let Mr J & Roo dress-up in their scary dinosaur costumes and knock on Grandma's door. We even dug out the prototype costume for Ed to wear! Luckily G'ma had some treats in stock...
