...babies, bibs, burp cloths...oh my!

I've been sewing like mad on my little machine (best gift ever mom!) whipping up little goodies for my soon to be bebe girlie! The best part is that i spent ZERO dollars! All the fabric is little scraps of stuff I've had for well over a year, I'll admit that i did buy some in anticipation for a little nugget...but it sure took a lot longer than Josh and i expected. So far I've made 14 bib/burp cloth sets and I'm pretty pleased with the results! I'm no super seamstress, that's for sure, I didn't use a pattern either and they still turned out homemade imperfectly perfect! I'm pleased. Almost all the fabric came from "have to have" fat quarters from Broadbent's in Lehi... I can't go in there without grabbing at least 10 of those little devils! They have the best fabric buyer. With super sweet fabric, how could i go wrong? My sewing machine is also pretty awesome and set up with some pretty fancy, no fuss, stitch options so i can cheat and add some flare to make me look like a semi-pro. My little 'made up" technique/pattern is super easy so if you'd like me to share, I'd love to.
Some of my little darlings.

the yellow fabric with the sweet little birds is my favorite
