Simple Homemade Gifts

 This is a repost...because baby love is in full bloom around here :)
I have made so many of these in the last couple of years!

I love homemade gifts and I also love *Simple*...

 so when I discovered these sweet gift ideas, I wanted to try them.

 I'm not one to take on anything too complicated at this point in my life;
the busyness of a large family means I might not complete it,
but these were very quick and easy.

 You've probably seen different versions of this diaper burp cloth in blog land,
but there is a wonderful tutorial over at Chickpea Sewing Studio, (thanks so much!).
 You can visit the link and get the complete tutorial there.

The stitching is just a simple zig-zag.

She also has a free download for a cute little reversible bib pattern
that takes just minutes to sew up.

I've made several sets of these over the last few months...

it seems a few of my friends are becoming grandmothers :-)

I like to use flannel, but you could use a pretty cotton fabric too.
If you know of anyone having a new baby, these make great little gifts.

*Have a wonderful weekend my friends*

(I've been doing a little blog cleaning, so bear with me as I redo photos to
some old posts, and do some editing too)
