Baby Bib

I wanted to make something a bit more practical for a baby than just booties and a hat. At first I thought about doing some kind of towel and/or washcloth type thing, but this is not my friend’s first baby, so I’m pretty sure she has plenty of that stuff. So I decided on a bib. Yes, she probably has plenty of those too, but a bib at least can be coordinated with clothing so it can be functional and cute. I made this pattern using bits of 100% cotton yarn. I’m pretty happy with how the embroidery turned out. I’ve never done anything like that before, so I was a bit worried. Sadly, I didn’t realize until later that I should have added some leaves…oh, well.
