oilcloth

Have I mentioned how much I adore oilcloth?
These bibs have seen me through four babies. Shake out, wipe off, and put on the back of the chair. They're virtually indestructible. With obsolescence built into so many of today's objects, endurance is admired.
Might I even say, appreciated?
I'm concentrating on finding the beauty in the everyday. If you have a moment, please join me at I Love Pretty Little Things. 
Have the loveliest of weekends, my friends.

I love oilcloth too...I was just looking at some oilcloth fabric today wondering if I have the ability to make some round placemats. My sewing isn't exactly stellar, but maybe even I could handle that.

The patterns on the bibs are too cute.

I make oil cloth bags (think grocery totes) and I use a couple different sources online for the oil cloth! I just love oil cloth too. I'll have to keep bibs in mind when the grand start to arrive :)

Blessings!

SO pretty! Why not be functional and cute? right? :) We had some little childrens aprons made out of that same oilcloth in the shop last year..they make cute bibs too.

~ Hope you have a Pretty weekend!

Oilcloth is great! Planned obsolescence is one of my pet peeves, too.

I'm a lover of oil cloth too! Those bibs are so sweet, and practical. Easy to wipe off dribbles of mashed yam ;)

oilcloth rocks. i covered my dining room table in april and it's still going strong through meals, spills, homework, tinkering ... it will probably last longer than my preference for the design! LOL

wishing you a safe & yummy halloween!
