Our daughter is teeth and dribbling like crazy at the moment! So it's time to make her some more dribble bibs. I've chosen to make these simple bibs from our excess swaddle blankets that we're not needing anymore. Join me for this beginner friendly, easy tutorial making these adorable baby bibs!
Let's get making!

ABOUT THIS CHANNEL:
Welcome to My Mum Makes! I’ve started this channel as a creative outlet to share my sewing projects online. I’ve loved to sew since my Mum taught me as a little girl and I find it relaxing, productive and fun. I love the chance to make things for my kids, myself and our home and I want you to feel motivated to give sewing a try and get creative. I think creativity is good for us especially as Mums. We can get so stuck in our everyday repetition, but spending some me-time creating something is a great way to unwind, prioritise our needs and use our brains in a different way to the everyday. Don’t forget to follow me on Instagram @mymummakes.marie to see more of what I’m up to.
GET TO KNOW US:
* Where are you from? South Australia
* What sewing machine do you use? Janome DC2150 - would definitely recommend Janome, can’t go wrong.

Hello. Love your channel. I’m a grandma of four with time on my hands and desperately learning new skills. I made bibs for my Grandaughter. When she was weaning. I wanted a waterproof layer and had some waterproof mattress protector left from a picnic blanket project. A did a three layer sandwich. Towelling back waterproof middle and flannel top. I then made a template that was a rectangle the length from neck to waist. I got a circular item to make a cut out for neck. Using kams for fastening I. The towelling side makes a great wipe up cloth after meal time. My daughter has had six for first year of eating and they have washed well.

Thanks I appreciate that! You should see how much editing it takes though - sometimes I definitely do talk too much and it makes it harder to edit down!

So helpful! Thank you!!! I love that your pattern for the bib has multiple sizes!!!! I’m making things for a baby shower and if you don’t mind giving me your opinion. Should I just make the 0-6 month size or also make one size up? I don’t have kids so I don’t know what to do! 😂 love your videos! Your channel is the best that I’ve come across for baby projects!

@MyMumMakes 3 жыл бұрын

Wow what a lovely comment to get!! Thank you so much. I'd probably just stick to the smaller size for a baby shower personally but it could work to make multiples.

I'm in Brisbane, and I can't imagine putting this bib with a fleece layer in the middle of hot summer day. I know it's small, but fleece is really hot (and it's synthetic). Do you have any other suggestions for the bottom layer?

@MyMumMakes 5 ай бұрын

Yes very true it would get hot. It being synthetic means it doesn't get as wet as natural fibers which is the point of the bib, to keep them dry. But you could use a natural fabric if you're worried about the heat (you could use flanellette unless that's too hot too) but it will just be less able to wick away the moisture.

How do I know if the pattern is printing out at the correct size?

@MyMumMakes 5 ай бұрын

I think this pattern didn't have a test square. I'm sorry about that - it wasn't my pattern, I was just using it. I would set your printer settings to 100% and it should be fine though

Hi! I had a look and it looks like about 17/18cm from the centrefold to the end of the strap part of the bib. Hopefully that helps!

What width seams did you use for the bib?

@MyMumMakes 3 жыл бұрын

I use 1cm which is about 1/2 an inch but it doesn't matter too much. A smaller seam is better though because it'll be less bulky on the inside

Hey, sorry i am really new at sewing. How should I print the pattern to get the right size? 1-Do I put it on a doc, then print it ? 2-Or should I right click the file, choose "print", untick "fit the image to the frame"? It s several centimeters difference :(

@MyMumMakes 3 жыл бұрын

Hi, I just press print from the webpage but you could put it into a document to resize it if it doesn't seem it would be a suitable size. Each printer would likely have different settings I guess. Sorry that that isn't heaps helpful though
