Scrappy Bibs
I've been pondering how to use the lovely stacks of squares I created from my scraps. A pillow? A granny square quilt (just posted today and now on my must make list!)? Then I remembered a pattern I bought a bit ago that I've been wanting to try. The Best Bib by JCasa handmade is perfect for these squares because it calls for a 10 x 10 piece of fabric. Twenty-five squares later you are ready to cut out your bib, or bibs in my case. I couldn't stop with one!
This is the perfect scrap project. I used the squares for the top, scrap batting in the middle, larger scraps for the backs and scraps of bindings for the tie. Such a good feeling.
This is also the perfect project to practice your free motion quilting. It's small and you're done in no time. Go ahead and try out some new designs. I quilted each bib differently. I love the leaves and vines. My hearts need more work.
These make me pretty happy, and they need to be together, don't you think? The set is now in my shop.
