Good morning Cuties!

I hope you aren't tired of looking at bibs, because here are a few more. One is for Avery and 3 for a girl with a need like Avery.
The first two I have motion quilted some 'gave to me fabric'. I have used 2 designs from Apex, one for the frame, one for the initials. The frame is a one color design,however, I watched the pink flowers stitch out and stopped during the color and changed my thread to yellow, to do the circle and side bars.
Then when I stitched Avery's bib, I played a little more. Even though the designs weren't changed, the colors were, giving them a completely different look.(see close-ups)
The bottom two are for the other child, done exactly like Avery's two I made earlier this week, except I used a darker shade of peach for her monogram. I found Avery's shade was a little too light for the dark fabrics. The fabric almost wanted to show through on the previous one, for Avery.
Hope you like them and I hope you all have a great day. I am baby sitting the 2 little ones and Avery too, when school is out, so no sewing today.-Toogie

Those are very nice, I think you are going to be a very busy lady in your retirement once word of your sewing and embroidery skills spread

I'm busy enough, Bev, but thanks. I think I need to move on to other things on my list.

I'm so glad you and Avery are sharing your talents with another child. They both will be gorgeous with their classy bibs.

If there is a need well..... I want to do the little girl maybe a couple more before I mail them. My daughter says the mom sews a little, so I will also include the trace out/pattern, of the large bib for them.

The girls will look so pretty with these bibs. It's always amazing what a difference colour changes can make.
Well done!

Script font is beautiful. You are on a roll my friend. Great job on them all. I finally got a pair of flannel pj shorts done for Emilie---they are gone now and no picture. I just forget to take them. At least another project done and out of the house.

The Victor font from Apex has always been a joy to stitch. I just love it and want to place it on everything-lol-Doesn't it feel good to finish something. I bet she liked her shorts. Once in a while I forget photos too-Toogie
