On June 28th of this year (approximately), I will be Aunt Tiffany. I’m so excited about Jeremy and Kristin’s baby and I’ve been quite busy sewing for the little one’s arrival.

the baby's stash
I made two bibs that button on the side. The fabric and buttons are from Jo-Ann’s.

The bibs are two layers of fabric and quilt batting. They should be absorbent for drool and spit up.
Most of my sewing was to embellish burp cloths. I purchased cloth diapers and several fat quarters of gender neutral fabric.

I like the tea party

Hello Kitty
The Hello Kitty burp cloth is maybe my favorite. I love the appliqué heart and the red binding (left over from my advent calendar). The ribbon came from the dollar section of Target. Or maybe this one is my favorite:

clowns!
Jeremy hates clowns. This way his baby can spit up on the clowns! The clown material came from Wal-Mart. Only $1 a yard, can you believe it?
Not only did I sew for Baby Bowman, but I also used my cross-stitch skills. I stitched a little duck on a onesie.


After those projects, I needed some way to use the rest of my fabric. And what better way than a patchwork Scottie dog?

Scottie Dog!
Isn’t he so cute? What a perfect home for my baby scraps. I hope that Baby Bowman likes it. I’m also in the midst of crocheting a little blanket for my niece/nephew.

Love you Baby Bowman
Love,
Tiff

Wow, you are very artistic. This beautiful Baby Bowman will have all originals and everyone esle will be jealous. You might have to start a little shop of your own. I love what you did with the burp pads. Very smart idea. Too bad you arent closer I would make you start sewing for the 3 girls at work who are expecting so they can get some of these cool items. You do have a gift, seriously. Plus you are such a smart shopper. I love them
