More Free Baby Projects

In case you haven't noticed yet, I've declared January the month-o'-baby.

Threadbanger just did a show on baby items--click and watch for a free simple tutorial on making a baby pod! You could easily embellish their version with a fun applique or contrast lining. Make sure to check out their episodes, they are chock full of crafty goodness.

And here's a free bib pattern by ChickPea Sewing Studio. Bibs are the perfect quick and easy gift, and parents can never have enough of them!





Try making some with our vinyl coated and oilcloth fabrics for bibs that'll easily wipe clean Search vinyl to find them all.




Or try these fun kid/food oriented prints. You could always coat them in clear vinyl too, just make sure to use the appropriate needle for your machine.

Happy crafting= happy babies!

I'm curious about the clear vinyl. How do you coat a regular piece of fabric with it? Does it iron on? Or is the idea just to layer them and only attach the two fabrics by stitching them?

I was thinking you could layer them and stitch together (if you put a bias tape around the edge of the bib, you could easily cover the vinyl edge). Some stores do sell iron-on vinyl- and though I haven't used it myself, it does seem like another good option.

Thanks for the info!

Great idea Linda!
Just do you know, Reprodepot does usually sell iron on vinyl, but we are just temporarily sold out. Please look for it to be restocked in our notions category in a couple of weeks!
