I had an occasion to create a set of 3 baby bibs as a gift. I picked this Teething Bib Set because the baby isn't brand new and will soon be needing something like this. The bibs are backed with a very nice nylon fabric that is soft to the touch and embroiders just like any other fabric. It's not the vinyl backing we remember from the 80s! :) I really enjoyed working with these colors and designs, and thought I better share my design resources in case anyone was interested in creating their own version. Here are the details: I used our Teething Bib Set of 3 found here. Alligator bib: The Alligator applique design was purchased from www.embroidery-boutique.com. I added a font I absolutely adore called "Caterpillar" and that can be found at www.appliquecorner.com. Letter A bib: The rounded block outline is actually an applique design that I changed up a little bit. I found the design at www.embroidery-boutique.com, then picked out the satin stitch outline pieces that I wanted to use for my project. The Letter A is a built-in design in my Bernina software. It's one of the very basic alphabets that every software program includes---I just tried them all until I found a lowercase a that I really liked, then resized it to fit inside my rounded corner frame. Whale bib: The Whale applique design was purchased from www.embroidery-boutique.com. Again, I added lettering from one of my favorite "boy" fonts called "Caterpillar" that I purchased from www.appliquecorner. I hope you'll make your own version of these cute, practical bibs. Send photos if you do! |
