baby gifts

finally, some sewing and finished projects! looks like some instant gratification is just what i needed to get back into sewing, because i've already restarted work on the wedding quilt, and cut up some charm squares for my next quilt. but for now, let me show you these cute baby gifts for my coworker who's expecting a baby boy in august. i've never made anything for babies before, because, well, no one in my life has had babies since i picked up sewing, until now! i'm already addicted!

a cute little bib! i had no idea how tiny baby bibs are until i finished this and held it in my hands, baby things are just way too cute! and i thought the gnome pushing a wheelbarrow full of mushrooms would be the perfect thing to add, gotta teach the baby to eat veggies early, right?

and here is the matching cloth baby wipe. now i know usually baby wipes are used to wipe the baby's tush, but i thought it would be also good to have a cloth wipe on hand to wipe the little messy face while he's eating, right?

my plan is to make a 3rd gift to complete this set, a baby quilt that says "nap" on it! i still have plenty of time, but i definitely need to get myself more organized because there are a gazillion wedding projects need to be finished too!

but for now, let me just bask in all these baby cuteness...
