Adult bibs

I saw this idea on Pinterest as an apron from a man's shirt.  I revised it to make adult bibs that require no reaching around to the back to fasten.

First, cut off sleeves

Then, cut from just below armpit to the collar, cut back of shirt off, leaving collar intact

Input from Edith:  She told me today that the buttons are a problem for the elderly.  So next time, I may sew velcro behind the buttons and over the buttonholes.

3-25-12:  I got on a roll today!! I was a machine!! A sewing machine!!  Here are 8 bibs I made today.  The other day Pat from TN stuck his head out of his camper to chat and pointed out that he had spaghetti on his shirt.  I told him I sometimes make some cool bibs and he said he sure would wear one.  So he sure did get one!

( loved this cool email I got from Joan from KY) Becky, just wanted to let you know that a lady we volunteer with, borrowed one of the "bibs" you gave us to use as a pattern. She teaches women in Niger how to sew. She thought this would be a good project for them to make and sell in their little stores. You're making difference across the globe!! Joan
