What I have Crocheted Plus A Baby Bib Pattern

I have not been doing very much crocheying lately but at Christmas 2014 I made some hats here they are:

Police Box from Snappy Tots Ravelry Store

Star Wars Beanie pattern from Jen Spears on ravelry.com

My grand kids loved them. Then I made 3 hats for a Christmas basket

I also made coffee cozies for the Kids and used a download pattern for the cups template at frogging along.com/2014/11/12/super-simple-cup-cozy-and-template

In Feb our granddaughter was born and I made her this hat and blanket my patterns. Will share the patterns later.

Last I made a baby set for a friends baby boy whose daddy likes the Green Lantern

I used  the pattern from WWW.whistleandivy.com for the baby boat booties with some change. I used World's Best Diaper Cover pattern from Boomer Beanies on ravelry.com

The bib is my own pattern and I am adding this pattern here.

As always there maybe mistakes but I try not to have too many. This is my pattern feel free to make but do not claim as your pattern. If you make this send me a picture.
