If you visit my cousin-in-law Marie's blog, you will catch a sewing bug. She makes such cute and beautiful things, it actually made me drive to our storage unit and bring my old, dusty sewing machine back to life. I can't make most of the awesome things she sews, but luckily for me she posted a couple of simple projects that I was able to attempt. They are full of flaws and my house is a mess after working on them, but it feels so great to create something.
Marie links to this website for a bib pattern. It's for smaller babies, so if you want to make one for a toddler, you'll need to widen it by an inch or so, and lengthen it 3-4 inches. The bib on the left has a pocket, and the one on the right has no pocket and I made it a little longer.
She also has a link on her blog to a cute headband pattern that wasn't too difficult. Here is a picture of Jennabee in one of them.

Oh, I am longing for the time to complete some of my current unfinished projects...I have the desire, just not the time! :(
The bibs turned out so cute. I like your choice of trims. A bee headband for Jennabee is just perfect. What a doll Jennabee is!
cute cute bibs, you know i like to sew, i'll have to try it, your kids are getting so big i can't believe it, what a cute crew you have there.
Thanks for the cute ideas! I'm not that great at sewing, but I think I'll give them a try.
Cute ideas! I need a girl...guess I could try to make some blue bibs though. Thanks for the ideas!
They look great! How fun. Maybe I'll have to pull out the ol' sewing machine myself.
