I found an old bib of Belle's and used that as a template since I didn't have any patterns. I think the little girl one has a bit of a better shape to it. I also appliqued the star and monkey head on the fronts to add dimension.
I also made matching burp clothes and blankets. They are all made of flannel and chenille.
Here is the whole set together.
And here they all are nice and wrapped up. I just need to put them in a gift bag and finish my handmade card.
I really hope they like it. I know there were a couple of things I could have done better but hopefully they won't notice.
****Update: I gave her the gifts yesterday and she really seemed to like them. I also gave her a handmade card to go with it. Yay!!

What completely wonderful gifts! I am sure they will be long loved.
Hand made gifts are simply.the.best.
So much more meaningful and heartfelt than a store bought gift.
If I was crafty, I would make stuff for my family & friends.

so adorable, and so sweet!
so cute.. I love Chenille.. so cozy
