Dribble Bibs

Here are some dribble bibs that I made for our little one.  What a quick and easy make!  I can see myself running up lots more of these over the next few years!!!

There was just one problem.  I'll share the story with you.....  


To finish them off neatly (and quickly), I decided to get a snap-fastener kit.  It came with a flimsy little plastic 'machine' that you have to wallop with a hammer to fix the little metal bits in place.....
  



Having smacked my thumb with the hammer on my first try, I called Simon to help.....


He gave the thing a huge man-sized wallop with the hammer.....  

And now there's an enormous hole in my crafting desk!!!  

I've been making sure the hole's always covered up with a book, or a pile of fabrics, or a jar of buttons.  When I'm freed from this bedrest business, I think one of my first projects will have to be finding a creative way of permanently covering the desk and its hole!!! 

Until next time.....

  2. I'm sorry but I've had a giggle at your expense. Never ask a man to do something that is clearly designed for women to do....however, I love your dribble bibs. Maybe something I should make for our new grandchild in waiting, x
