Free Baby Sewing Patterns for Feeding & Nursing

Here you'll find free baby sewing patterns such as baby bib patterns for all things feeding & nursing! Nursing and feeding make up a huge, I mean huge portion of baby's life in the early years. So lets make it fashionable, functional and frugal!

These are the items you will rely on and use again and again and again. If you are considering making a gift for a new mama - bibs are always a good choice because everybody uses them and they get messy fast so it is nice to have a few handy while others are in the wash.

Baby bib patterns in particular seem to come in two flavors. Small and cute (I call these "decorative bibs") and the ones that are serious mess catchers. The small, cute ones are for droolers and babies who are pretty clean eaters (I've heard those babies exist - I certainly didn't have one) and the mess catchers are bigger, usually wipeable and will protect clothes from messy monsters.

Don't walk around with a plain towel over your shoulder, sew up a few of these to match your diaper bag or your wipes case!
