Some Wrapped Up Crafts

Man, I was lucky I got these things finished just in time!
I kept an old guest towel (who knows why) that had some bleach stains on it. It was a REALLY big one, and I thought it would be fun to make a few bibs for Mason with all the little scraps from his room decor. I traced one of Brighton's bibs that she wears right now so that they would all be a good size (was able to cut out 9!), and then went at it with applique and fabric paint! I also had a whole bunch of premade binding packages that I was able to use on some of them. It was a great way to practice.
I also made this blanket, inspired by the one here, with some left over scraps. I didn't win the giveaway, so I figured I would stop being lazy and make one myself.
And while I haven't gotten around to making the twelve that Dale requested, I did throw together some burp cloths before Mason's arrival using an old hand towel (the green one) and left over scraps.

Those are seriously the cutest bibs EVER. You should sell them. And you know how I love that blanket. (Since I saw the same one online that you did and decided to make it before I knew you were making it. Ha!)
