Make a Cute Pumpkin Bib
by Mary Wilkins

Description: How to make a cute baby pumpkin bib.

Sponsors:

The smallest ones will look so debonair this Halloween with their very own pumpkin bib! It is reversible as well, so it does double duty in a pinch.

All you need is two pieces of fabric approx. 15" long x 12" wide and batting the same size. Two pieces of hook and loop tape about 1" long.

Cut an oval about the size of a dinner platter or a placemat from all 3 pieces. Cutting in thru the middle approx. 6" from one narrow end. Cut a circle large enough to go around baby's neck. Round all edges as you see in the picture.

Now, layer batting on bottom, two fabrics right sides together on top of batting. Starting at one long edge stitch around outer edge. Stitch to within 2" of where you started. Leave opening to turn bib right side out. Trim edges to eliminate bulk and turn right side out. Top stitch entire outer edge in black thread, catching in opening as you go.

Draw funny face on the front and go over it several times with black thread to make it more visible.

Stitch one side of hook and loop tape to right side of one end. Stitch other side to wrong side of other end.
