So I have renewed enthusiasm for crafting. First project completed is a bib (fabulous 50's bib from Nicole Mallalieu) which turned out very cute. I couldn't get the width of bias binding she recommended, mine was thinner and it was a bit fiddly to put on but it turned out very cute.
Second project was a quick quilted baby blankie for the pram. It's the same fabric as the bib but a different colourway :) For the back I used a bamboo swaddle cloth that had shrunk so the fabric was a bit tighter than a muslin usually is and was nice and soft. I quilted it in a grid using my walking foot (first time I'd done that) and was pleased that the fabric didn't pucker at all.

Love your bib and blanket! I'm not a fan of bias binding either. I avoid it at all costs!
