for baby

I've finally started some baby sewing. The list of what I want to do keeps growing so fast, I had trouble getting started. I finally found a bib template I liked online. Most tutorials just tell a person to trace a bib they already like... but I don't have a bib I like...so I was happy to find a nice looking template. Plus, it came in two sizes, so I can jump in with two sizes of bibs.
And the result:
 So cute. So freakin' cute I can't stand it. It's made from a fat quarter of a Japanese fabric I couldn't resist ages ago. Pair with some Kona solid scraps and black bias tape... and pure wonderful happened. I just need to add snaps or hook and loop tape.
Oh, a close up on Mr. Mousers:
Plus, you can see the fabric- mice and cheese. I mean, perfection, right?
The mouse is from the book Rainbow of Stitches
