Congratulations, being a Grandma is very exciting!

I have made burp cloths out of flannel. There are lots of cute prints. I make an oval shape to fit over the shoulder. Two layers of fabric rght sides together, sew and turn right side out and stitch the opening closed. Pretty simple!

The bibs I like to make is a pattern from Sew Baby. A "Sleeve Saver" bib. It slips over baby's head like a t-shirt and has sleeves. It's great when baby starts looking around and the food doesn't always go in the mouth. Also good when they start feeding themselves.
