This little bib is pretty cute I think. It went together pretty smoothly.

Pattern: Mr. Businessman on Little Man Bibs! by Vanilla House DesignsAll three of the bibs above from the Little Man Bibs! pattern were really easy to sew. The directions were super clear. I altered it a little on Mr. Cowboy & Mr. Formal. I didn't wan to mess with any fusible tape, so I just pinned the two halves of the bib together and stitched it by hand.

The last three bibs above were done without a pattern. I used the Baby Bibs pattern to outline the edge of the bib, but that was all I took from there. Unless I was given only part of the pattern (which could be the case), I wouldn't buy this pattern. It just included the outlines of the appliques and of the bib with very little directions on how to construct or applique. It is entirely possible that I wasn't given the whole pattern to work from, but it didn't really look incomplete to me.
So, if you'd like to make something similar, follow these easy steps:
- Fussy cut your applique fabric with fusible web attached to the backside. It doesn't matter really if you cut the fabric and then apply the fusible web or vice-versa. I prefer to apply a bit more fusible web to the back and then cut the fabric so that the edges are matched exactly perfect.
- Trace a bib outline onto a medium-weight fusible interfacing. Apply that to the wrong side of the front of your bib. Flip the pattern over and repeat for the backside of your bib.
- Fuse applique onto right side of bib top. Using a zig-zag stitch and matching thread, sew around the perimeter of the applique to attach it to the top of your bib.
- Align the top of bib and the back of bib with wrong sides together. Baste.
- Permanently attach the front and back sides of the bib together using 1/2" double-fold bias.
- Make a closure for the bib using either snaps or a 2" strip of velcro.
