Sew a set of baby burp cloths and bibs — three items in one pattern

BAMBINO includes templates for three practical baby essentials: a burp cloth, a traditional bib and a bandana bib. Each is cotton on the front and soft bamboo towelling on the back, so it's absorbent where it needs to be and pretty on show. A lovely, quick baby-shower gift, and a great beginner project — no fiddly bias binding, just sew, turn and topstitch.

What you'll make

  • A burp cloth
  • A traditional bib (Kam Snap fastening)
  • A bandana bib (Kam Snap fastening)

What you'll learn

  • Layering cotton with bamboo towelling and trimming the excess back
  • Clipping curves so they turn out smoothly
  • Turning through a gap and topstitching to close it
  • Fitting Kam Snap fasteners

Sizes

Full-size templates for the burp cloth and both bib styles, suitable for newborns and up.

What you'll need

Cotton fabric for the fronts, soft-backed bamboo towelling for the backs, and Kam Snaps for the bibs. Seam allowance is 6mm (¼").
