Miles has started drooling like a saint bernard, and in order to prevent him from soaking through his shirts, he's forced to wear a bib constantly. He really doesn't mind, he likes having something to stuff in his mouth whenever he wants. The problem was that we didn't have enough bibs for him. He'd go through several in a day, and I refuse to do wash everyday. So, I'm sharing a pattern, template, and basic tutorial on how to make these simple knit baby bibs (6-12 months). It's a great stash busting project if you have some extra knit fabric lying around. Have a favorite old t-shirt that you can't bear to toss? Turning it into a dribble bib is a great option.
First things first, go and print off the dribble bib pattern. I've included templates for the pattern, appliques, and text.
You'll need to cut out two layers of knit fabric. I fold my fabric in half with wrong sides together, position my bib pattern, and then cut out both layers at once. Doing so ensures that both of your pattern pieces will be facing the proper direction.
