Baby Apron (aka: Bapron)...

The two youngest grandgirls are eating Big People food now and so this Grammy figured she ought to get some decent bibs stitched up for them.  I found this nifty bib-apron on Pinterest.  It has armholes as well as a top tie at the neck so the coverage is excellent.  I will say this -- it took a great deal of self-restraint not to say naughty words as I stitched the bias tape all around.  I don't care how I do it -- pinned every inch, freestyle, or stitching one side and then the other -- bias tape and I equal frustration!  My baprons are far from perfect, but hey, these cuties are meant to be soiled, so what's the big deal, right?  The girls won't care a flip if they aren't perfectly stitched.

The bapron recipe calls for one cotton fabric and one flannel.  I wanted these baprons to be a little thicker to absorb spills so I used two cotton fabrics to make them reversible and added a thin layer of cotton batting in the middle.  Perhaps the batting is what made the bias tape sewing a little harder.  Here's the link to the pattern:  The Bapron -- a tutorial.

 Addendum: Here's Amy from  Angry Chicken  giving her "No Swearing Bias Tape Method." It did help on the third bib....somewhat.
