Bib with a simple name design on it.

WOW great idea would never thought of that.. It is so very nice, thanks for sharing the pict and tip. I enlarged it and can see very well what you are talking about, love it.

Simply perfect! I love towel bibs and the name should keep it from being "lost" at a care center or sitters house. I "lost" a lot of nice things when my children were in daycare centers.

It looks really good...

Lovely very smart

Mops thanks for sharing your method of adding some crosshatching to the design. Its small tips like this that make this site so useful as well as everything else. A lovely bib

I noticed I posted an "embossed oval with bow" in Youembroidery in March 2011, so I must have been doing this for a long time as it makes embroidering on towelling so much easier.

I love the way you do this Martine. It looks wonderful. I like simple for little boys/Lillian

mops, the cross hatch design looks so good with the band on the towel, they look alike to me! I love it!

Heel mooi

nicely done

Thanks for the tip...can't wait to try it........Ann

Great way to make a bib! I think little towels like this one would be very useful. Nice and big to catch the big drops!

Yes, it's what is called a guest towel here, 30x50 cm or about 12" x 20". Opening the size of a cd, ribbing 15% shorter than the circumference of the hole. I usually do half a dozen or more at a time in different colours, ready to be embroidered.

Thanks for the additional information. I was wondering how you did that neck.

That method makes stitching on toweling worth it.

Yes, it does, it keeps the lettering readable after being laundered time and again.

Gorgeous

Yep, it is definitely worth twice the price! You do such a great job on these bibs. Thanks for the tip about the crosshatching!

I love how you did this. I can see why your client paid you double.
Hugs

Beautiful stitching, Martine!

Thank you. I made it for a friend who just collected it. She loved it and paid me twice what I had asked :)
