Baby Skirt & Bibs
It must be the season of life I’m in, but it seems like everyone is having babies lately! So I made this little baby skirt out of some Honey, Honey by Kate Spain and I think it turned out so cute!
I used french seams to finish all the edges, and am happy with the way they turned out {I made it like this skirt I made Norah a couple years ago}. I added a little piece of ribbon in the back too, to make it obvious which side is back {not that it really matters, but I did hem the side seams toward the back}, and I think it adds a cute touch.
I also made these two little baby bibs for a friend who is having twin boys! I used some Shannon Terry Cloth on the back because it’s so cute and soft.
And, I couldn’t make all those baby things without making my own baby a bib too. I backed hers with pink terry and quilted it with my favorite Aurifil 3660 pink vegetated thread. I find that quilting the bibs helps them come out of the wash without looking too crinkly, as seems to happen with cotton bibs when washed.
But, I know you’re looking at the baby, not the bib! She’s almost five months old, I cannot believe the time has passed so quickly. I am planning to make a couple skirts for her too, once the weather warms up a little bit, just in case she moves up to the next size in the meantime {since it seems like it is going to be cold forever!}. At least I get to spend them inside with all my little cuties.
Look at that cutie, she’s so happy!! Love the little skirt and bibs!!

Your little girl is so beautiful! And I love the way the skirt turned out . . . I may need to attempt one for my own little girl who is due this Spring (although it really is hard to believe that spring is ever coming with all the snow and cold still)!
What a darling picture of such a beautiful Grandaughter.
Love all of you
You’re right. I was looking at that cutie!
What an absolute cutie! Your projects are so precious. Love that little skirt.
I have a 9 month old granddaughter and want to make her a skirt. What pattern did you use or did I miss the pattern on your site?
Girl these are soooo cute. I love the skirt! I have Corinne making a few dresses for Addi. I just can’t seem to find time to learn how to sew clothes. Can’t believe sweet Lydia is growing so quickly. She is adorable! Miss you!
Isn’t is nice to know that time flies so fast and by just a day many babies are born. I may be a man but I know how to appreciate such cute little things for the little ones. Just love the way that you used french seams to finish all the edges for the skirt and also the baby bibs, they are really adorable. Before I forget to say this, your little darling is really cute.
