My daughter teaches at a school for kids (age 3 - 21) with multiple handicaps and they had their prom today. She called me yesterday in a panic because she wanted "formal" bibs for her students (all over 18), so I did an internet search and found your site. I made two tuxedo bibs based on your red tie bib, one tuxedo bib in lavender and another based on the pink plaid bib. My daughter is delighted and her coworkers were impressed. The picture of one of the boy's bibs is attached.
My question is whether I can use your patterns (or variants thereof) to make bibs for sale?

Thank you so much for these patterns. Since I am only 44 yrs old finding ones to suit my personality is an issue. Now I can get my aunt to make me some.

Hi Suze, I'm looking for a pattern for a adult bib similar to yours but on a smaller scale. Something that will go around the neck but not hang down very far in the front. Something like a cowboys bandana? Any ideas.

The idea of using an Over Size Cowboy Bandana would work. You could cut a large triangle instead of a square and make the point hanging down in the front as deep a you want. Use a piece of old sheeting to experiment to find the size you want.
Or, you could use one of the patterns below and cut it to the length you want.

Tip #1 - Washing
When using Velcro, close before laundering.
This will minimize damage to other clothing in the laundry load.
I will prevent bibs from snarling up if you are washing several at a time.
Tip #2 - Traveling
Bring an attractive bib along for long airline flights where eating will be required.
Tip #3 - Traveling
Everyone can use a bib on long car trips to save yourself from spills.
Tip #4 - Cosmetics
Keep a bib in the bathroom to slip on before applying make-up.
