I'm having my first baby in next few months and want to make some baby stuff( Bib, creeper, romper, layette...) by myself.

Would somebody help me , show me how to make these stuff or where can I buy patterns or instruction books about making baby clothing?

Thanks for any help.

Any store that sells fabric should have pattern books you can look through to select
patterns. Usually there is a section on "infants and children". Be sure to select soft fabrics, and unless you know the sex of the baby, pick colors and patterns that would work for either boy or girl. Good Luck!

I agree with you other replies. Be sure to check with some local fabric store for patterns. You might want to take a class also. There are certain kinds of seams that are used in new born clothing so that no raw edges touch your precious newborn. Most patterns are very simple - you can do it!!!
Take a class and enjoy your healthy new baby!
