I have been cringing when hanging my babies' bibs on the line recently. After many months of vomit, dribble and food, they are disgusting. Revolting even. Ok, they are ferral. I feel like a trashy mother when I put them on the kids. So I got busy and sewed like a trashy mother trying to redeem herself.
I morphed the good parts of the bibs I have to make my own simple pattern....- good size
- snap clip (not velcro that gets stuck to everything in the wash.. agghhh)
- cute fabric
- towelling back
So now, we now have 22 crisp, new, clean bibs, ready to be vomited on! Imagine if I was able to get the kids to sponsor me per bib... at say $100 per bib... imagine..!!!!!

WOW, you are on fire!
great work, don't be discouraged...they will get vomited on pretty quick.
They look great. I think I will definitely try and make my own bibs in the future, too. The velcro annoys me too, and mine are all stained up as well.
Oh you made me laugh with the bib-A-thon!!There you go now you can start a bib-a-thon factory!!Love the cute fabrics...well done;)
Oh, they look lovely! And I wholeheartedly agree with the strategy of having nice things, even if they will get vomited on. We all need little moments of beauty in our daily life.
They look fantastic! I feel even more guilty about my little boys feral bibs now... it's amazing how quickly they get in that state. You're setting a very high standard here!!
Seriously! When/How have you found the time? Do you sleep? How are your "embroiderer's fingers" coping post 'bib-a-thon'?
I agree, your babies' bibs were ferral, you trashy mother, you. These look terrific ... still don't know how you get the time to do all the stuff you do.
These look fantastic:)
Gorgeous! All bubbas look better in handmade bibs.
Yay now they can chuck all day and have a clean one for each . Seriously your pretty clever and SO many !
This makes me laugh! I thought I was the only one who cringes when I hang out bibs on the line! Lovely.
That's awesome! You're like a bibathon production line. i would never let anyone vomit on something so pretty :-)
that is amazing to sew soooo many they look fab, you have been so busy the onesies look great and are such a great idea!!!
i always remember my sister spraying exit mould on her childrens clothes... i was mortified until i had bibs! i must admit i would throw mine away when they got too manky but i bet the exit mould worked a treat :o)
yours are smashing
smooches rosey
What a production line!! Love the new bibs/
Did you say TWENTY TWO? Awe. That's what I'm in. Awe. (at your skills, staying power and sheer volume of vomit).
