I can't wait to try this bib I made today on my grandson! He will love the monkeys. I like the color combination!


I love to sew on whimsical fabrics.  I would enjoy finding this soft waterproof fabric in other colors and prints.  I don't believe this is vinyl yet it is too soft to be any of the oilcloth fabrics I have felt lately.  It looks like a research project in the making.  In the meant time I will look for other things to make with the monkey print.  My brain is full of ideas now for time to put them to work!

In the meantime, I know this bib will be more comfortable than the others with smaller necks and Velcro.  I have caught the hair of many a child with Velcro and in my experience, it is easier to get a tie untied without catching the hair of a little one.  Now that he likes to "feed" himself, the waterproof aspect is a plus!

  1. That bib is adorable! It's going to look so cute on your grandson. I love monkeys too. I just recently found sock monkey jammies for both of my boys at Target and was so excited. I actually thought my kindergartener would love them and my oldest 5th grader would say they are too baby. Well it turns out the oldest loves his flannel monkey jammies and wears them all time and the 5 year old refused to wear them. Go Figure!

    Have a great day!
