Joann's had an orange stripe and a yellow stripe just like it so I bought some of those and if I keep making this kind of bib (I'd like to try something more fem for baby girls) I might have to try a different kind of stripe.
For bibs I don't mind using whatever color fabric that fills the need. These won't last forever so I'm not as fussy as I am when I buy material for a quilt. Not that quilts last forever either!
How's that for a long answer to a short question! LOL
Sorry, usually not to chatty so it has to be the snow!

There are five colors in use but several prints. The centers are a cat print, other cat print, a zoo print, a dragon print.
I started photographing so I could see which I liked best but find I like them all.
