I designed a kerchief style bib that is fashionable as well as functional.  

The creation of the Hipper Bib was designed for my son Ian.

Ian is 6 years old and is diagnosed with Angelman Syndrome which causes Ian to drool.  After searching for special needs bibs, drool bibs, and fashionable bibs, I decided to come up with a unique bib that had all of these features. I wanted a bib that would compliment his clothing and in turn would not draw attention to the fact that he was wearing a bib therefore, maintaining his sense of dignity. 

The Hipper Bib features:

• A unique triangle shape, which when secured around the wearer's neck, creates a multitude of pockets and folds which captures and retains drool.
• Each bib is constructed of three layers. The two outer layers are made with a variety of 100% cotton, cotton blends, and soft snuggle flannel patterns and solids. The third, which is sandwiched between the two, is the stay-dry layer which keeps the saliva, liquids, and food from soaking through to their underlying clothes and skin. The bib is adorned along the edges with cotton trim.
• The bib is attached to the wearer by criss crossing the ties around the back of the neck and securing with snaps. The snaps hold up wash after wash.
• The bib is reversible creating two bibs in one.
• The bib may be laid out flat for quick drying. Machine wash on cold and tumble dry.
• **** Hipperbibs are hand made to order...cut, pinned, trim ironed, sewn, snapped, and packaged. It can take up to 2 weeks to get in the mail depending on the amount of Hipperbib orders I have at the time. Please be patient, it will be worth the wait !

Bibs come in different absorbencies
        (although the bibs will NOT soak through to clothes, they do come in different absorbant fabrics)
*Cotton, is a good soaking bib 
*Jersey knit (t-shirt) and flannel is a little better than cotton 
*Ribbed knit blend and Thermal blend is a great absorbant material
*Terry Fabric is the best soaker
