good learning curve for me today as I learned that the best way to sew over velcro(hook & loop tape) is to cover it with a pc of wss & it sews perfect! I had another order for Bibs for Christmas & she said to put anything on it that I chose, the angel is from gift set from Miss V a couple of Christmas's ago, the owl is recent freebie & the snowflake is from a wallhanging set that I modified just a little, & of course they are as always reversable.

May I ask what you use, if any, as a lining between the outer layers? Sometimes I use washcloths or batting, but have wondered what others use to make them absorbent. thanks!

They are very nice! And I believe your advice is good, but as english is not 'my language' I don't understand the term 'a pc of wss'... I guess that wss is Water Soluble S.. something. Could anyone explane to me, please?
