Adult bibs - I made these for my BIL who is confined to his bed. So...Now he can dress for Thanksgiving and Christmas with his ties. The designs are from Planet Applique. I put decorative fabric on the back, and if he wishes, he can reverse it

These are things that would be appreciated at the nursing homes. Thanks for the idea.

He will love this very thoughtful gift and you're going to have more requests, I think!

I like the idea of ties. :) I made some bibs for my brother and mother. My brother likes to lounge at the end of the day in his recliner and eat peanuts. Of course the shells go everywhere, so I put a fold at the bottom for a crumb catcher. His comment was that I should have put terry cloth on the back so it would hold it in place. I put snaps on, but he likes to just put it on his chest. I put terry cloth on the front and a woven cotton on the back. Maybe next time, I'll reverse those, or just make it reversible. I hope your BIL likes what you have done!

Like the reversible idea. You have more options to coordinating and taking up less space.

What a great idea-sure beats the plain ones-I will have to keep this in mind the next time a customer of mine has me do up another batch of bibs for her father-in-law.I have done about 15 of them in just the plain heavy white JCPenney towels for them in the past year.

What a great idea to dress up the plain ole white adult bib. I have one customer that has had me make about 16 of them in the past year or so for her father-in-law. They sent him home with a couple from the nursing home after his stroke but constant bleaching eats um up. I will have to keep this in mind the next time she needs new ones made.

It's a great idea for all to dissect a volatile or shellfish.
