Baby Gift

I made these as a gift for my sister in law and (soon to be) nephew. This is a link to the tutorial for the shoes. I used one of my son's old jackets for the material. I used the hood of the jacket to make the heel of the shoe. This is a link for my lame explanation of the burp cloths. I made her a set of 6- 2 each of 3 different colors.
She's due in less than a month and we're excited to meet him!

Katie's Towel Bibs

These are the bibs my friend Katie was telling me about. Her grandma makes them - she uses old t-shirt or sweatshirt necks and sews them in. Then you can skip the velcro altogether. I like that better since the velcro tends to stick onto things it shouldn't in the wash. Thanks Katie!

Burp Cloths

Here is what I'm making for some of the new babies in our Sunday School class.

I just bought a higher end washcloth and wrapped the edges with yarn like this -

Then crocheted one row all the way around - I don't know the correct terms for crocheting, I am self-taught, but on the corners crochet one and then do one extra loop before crocheting the next so it lays flat. They are easy and really cute and they are also really absorbent for the big spitters out there!
