thanks to all the cuties who helped me to save the bib. This is the finished bib. The back is a pc of a towel just like the instructions call for, more absorbent too but I agree with Michelle it is rather small newborn to 3-6 months maybe so 6-12 lbs. I will have to see what I can do to enlarge the pattern. All in all a good learning experience for me & I can see where this style of bib would be good for 6-18 & even 24 months old as it does cover the front well.
