Old fashioned goodness with a modern twist!

Hopefully you can tell now that the new item is a baby bib! I finally took the time to work out the details of the vision in my head, and I sure hope others find them as cute as I do.

First, I found and modified an antique bib pattern. Then, I dug through my collection of vintage buttons to find just the right ones to complement each color.

It took me several tries to get the "finishing touch" just right. What I attempted initially was just way too busy. The bow is simple and sweet, which is exactly the look I was hoping to achieve.

The details: Each bib body is made from silky soft 100% mercerized cotton. These can be machine washed in cold water on a gentle cycle, but handwashing is best. Lay flat to dry. Price: $20

I value your opinions, and would really appreciate hearing your thoughts, questions, and/or suggestions about the design, price, photos, etc. Thanks in advance!










Each step of the creation process was very carefully considered; the colors, patterns, sizes, stitched designs. There were MANY starts and stops along the way.
They will be sold in sets of three- each set will include one of each shape and color. Each one has an upcycled, vintage fabric patch on the back. They come packaged for giving, on cello-covered glittery cardstock with a handmade Retro Rosey tag.
I've worked so hard on the photographs, trying to get them exactly perfect. I'm not there yet, but if I keep waiting for perfection I may be awhile.
