I want to be your best friend!! I've watched about 25 videos on making and embroidering bibs, your's BY far is the MOST practical and professional. No cutesy cheesy song and dance, just good information that's well presented and visible.mGoing on a search to watch every video and tip you've made. FANTASTIC!!
Girl, you are genius! You just saved me lots of time by not cutting the bibs out first. That's how I've done them for so long. Thank you. It's much appreciated!!!
Just watched this video today (4/9/2019) Never thought of doing the embroidery first on the 1 full piece of fabric, stitch, THEN cut out. I would have marked the grid lines to line up after cutting out the bib pieces, then do the embroidery. I have sewn a couple of bibs in the past (over 20 years ago) and have actually made my seem line, cut out, THEN I would have put the embroidery on, then stitched the two pieces together...Makes SOO much sense the way you are doing it. Reflecting, and thinking about other things that I have sewn over the years...this can be done/ use this same technique: sew first then cut around the sewn object pieces. You wouldn't believe how, at times, my two pieces didn't line up exactly, and things were slightly off (self taught sewing, and back then no RUclips, and didn't live close to the library. My teachings of self taught was actually taking apart a lot of different items and restitching back together to see how pieces look before and after, and learned how to manage to make things go together to be stitched. Thanks Eve!! As always I am learning soo much from you!!
Hi and thank you very for the quick response. It's a for a gift I will send it to friends in another country so I will stay on the safe side and make it bigger. If it doesn't fit now, it will later. Thanks for your advice and have a great day! 😎🌸
I love this. I’m pretty OCD when it comes to sewing. I don’t embroidery but I do heat transfer vinyl and I’ve learned that I cut my fabric both side together (right sides together) so the pieces match exactly. I have cut our my baby bibs just as you do. It just makes it so much simpler and you have a much cleaner stitch line. It’s good to know I’m not the only one who does this.
This is a great video. Thanks for sharing with us. Just don't understand why someone would give it a thumbs down. Your method is very simple with the patterns. I have a brand new granddaughter and plenty of fabric to make bibs and burp cloths.
+Tanisha Jones Welcome to the world of sewing! Thank you for tuning in and thank you for your comments! 😊 If there is anything I can do to help, let me know. 👍
I just wanted to tell you I found yesterday 8/8/17 at my Dollar Tree the flexible Set of 2 Chopping Mats because you showed the picture. I bought four, thinking of future pattern hard copies. Thank you so much I will be keeping this method. I had already started going to Staples to have them encased in flexible plastic. This is very comparable to what they do and I could cut it there for free, lol but I haven't yet. Thank you so much! I want to send you pics of my hooded towels.
well eve I wanted to do a embroidery designs on the cloth side of my baby bib I did three samples one came out so good and the others not so good the machine jammed up on me but the good thing is we always learn something.I'll try again tomorrow am so bless to have you . thanks for all your help. your a good teacher .
I know this is an older video, but I just got an embroidery machine a few months ago. I love all your videos - hope you continue making more. You're a great teacher Eve! Thank you for sharing!!!!
+Linda Hamilton Thank youuuu! I really appreciate your feedback! My goal is definitely to be as helpful as possible! Thank YOU for watching our videos! 🤗☺
Thanks for the tip of seeing the bib 1st before cutting it. I’m currently embroidering my 1st bib & was going to cut then sew, but I LOVEEEE this concept. Seems so much simpler.
Thank You! I try to pass on the little things that will make our crafting lives easier! 😊 I really appreciate you watching our videos and for leaving comments!
Hi Ms Sandra! Thank you for watching and leaving a comment. I am a stickler for consistency, and I figured others out there would benefit as well. I am glad that this was a great tip for you!

+Love to learn Maryland You're welcome! 😄 Ready made is convenient, but the fun of customization is what I love! Thanks for your comment, and be sure to post a pic of your bib when you make one!
You are absolutely a great teacher! Even I that have never sew anything understood the instructions, and you make seem so easy that I am going to try to hand sew one. ( I do not have a sewing machine). I would like to ask you to list the name of the front and back fabrics, and the stabilizer and "backing"? Thank you very much for sharing all your knowledge with us.
Hi Eve was checking your online store to see if you have posted your bib patterns for sale yet, I'm anxious to try one for my neighbors new great-granddeaughter coming in November. I know you are soooo busy hope you can get them I would sure purchase them :)
Thank you for your bib video Could you tell me what sewing machine you are using and what kind of material did you use for the top of the bib Thank you

Game changer, right?! When I realized how hard i was working lining everything up, I was like... "there HAS to be a better way!"
Thank you very much. I just finished reading all the comments and found the answers to my questions.
Great idea to use the cutting boards from Dollar Tree. And I never thought to cut out the bib after sewing the two layers together. :)
i would like to say thank you i use both of your tips.
+Noor Booker You are welcome! Enjoy your projects!
i would show you a picture of how it came out but i do not know how to upload a picture to here
I use placemats to cut out patterns. It works great and I punch a hole to hang for quick visibility
That's a smart tactic! Thank you for sharing your method.
