More about Feather the Nest

I was blessed with a wonderful baby....and she has spit up gallons and gallons upon me since the day she was born.  Therefore, the two most important baby items in my opinion are: BIBS and BURP CLOTHS.
Our little angel turns 8 months old today and she is still spitting up after every meal.
So, I have been on the quest for the perfect bibs and burp cloths to deal with this issue.
I have learned a few things:

  • the ones that tie with strings are just for looks (grabby babies love to pull them off and spit up onto that fresh, new outfit
  • you have to be careful with the ones that fasten with velcro because you can scratch your baby's neck during the removal process
  • absorbency is key
So, with the knowledge of what works for me in mind, I started a business hand sewing bibs and burp cloths from scratch!  Those of you who know me know that this is a very unlikely undertaking.  I have been perceived as not being very ummm domesticated for the greater part of my life.  But, necessity is the mother of invention so here we go!

Here are a few of my new creations:








As you can see, I have also been working on learning the art of monogramming!
