I set out last week to make enough bibs to send out for more testing and I'm proud to say, I did just that. A girlfriend recommended that I make one out of microfiber. I thought that was genius! Microfiber has become such a popular fabric of choice these days, mostly for cleaning I think. Personally, I've never used one and I'm a little skeptical about its absorbency because it's so thin. Apparently, it's supposed to be even more absorbent than terry cloth. It is super soft and supple however. I guess we'll just wait and see.
Another friend brought up a very interesting point. She suggested that I include some sort of safety disclaimer when sending my bibs out for testing. I wonder if all other bibs have disclaimers? I'd better check on my next trip down the baby aisle at Target. It would really suck if I got blamed for some moron who chokes their kid with my bibs so I'd better find out more about this.
2 weeks ago, I posted an announcement on WAHM.com, to basically share the inspiration behind the creation of the bib and to ask for testers. Days went by and nobody responded so I was kind of disappointed but today, I got a response! A mom of twins shares my dilemna and wants samples! I'm so excited! This is progress!
I have 5 more requests for samples and I'm out of supplies so the goal for this week will be to do some shopping, hit the sewing machine and crank out some more bibs by Sunday night!
