Who doesn't love the bandana bib? Let's face it, there aren't too many accessories for little boys out there but I believe that the bandana bib is the perfect combination of functionality and accessory. Although, I can guarantee that Sam will be wearing his bandana bibs long after he grows out of their functionality!
What you will need:
- 40 cm of knit fabric (I used used a jersey knit but you could use any fabric but the knit fabric is absorbent on its' own)
- 40 cm flannel
- 5 cm of ribbing
- Coordinating thread
- Bandana Bib Free Downloadable Pattern
1. Download the FREE Bandana Bib Pattern. Cut a bib panel, using the pattern, from both the knit fabric and the flannel. Cut 2 lengths of ribbing 1.5" wide and join together using a 1/4" seam.
2. Tack the knit and flannel pieces together with wrong sides together.
3. Fold the end of the ribbing over by 1/4" and sew in place. Align the edge of the ribbing with the edge of the bib, right sides together. Attach using 1/4" seam, ensuring you don't pull the ribbing tight.
4. Sew the ends together, ensuring that the hemmed piece is closest to the bib face.
5. Turn the bib over. Fold the ribbing in half, then fold it over the edge of the bib and pin in place. When pinning, place the pin in the ditch created by the seam which attaches the ribbing to the bib.
6. Stitch in the ditch to attach the ribbing. To give the bib a store bought appearance, stitch along the middle of the ribbing to finish off.
7. Attach studs where indicated.
Now you're ready to dress your little guy with some swagger!!
