Bibs for pregnant friends

With so many friends having babies, I decided to make bibs. I found a pattern online, from this place called "Nested." printed it out, and sewed a bunch of bibs. Not without making a bunch of mistakes.


1. The neck - make sure you put little bitty triangles in neck areas so that you don't get bunching, and the neck looks smooth.


2. Make sure the pattern is the right way. I made a bunch of bibs with upside down sheep. :P
3. Cut both the front and backing fabric (right side facing each other) at the same time.
4. An infant's neck is approx 8-9" in circumference. Making a fatter pattern will not accommodate an infant's neck.
