sewing pvc bibs and safety of 'phthalates'

Yeah, frida I agree to not use the fabric for safety's sake, it would be fine to have other alternation. Items for baby truly need to be paid as much attention to. I bear your information in mind as well, thanks for you share!

Cannot find the info re-PVC but decided not to use it while baby little. However, I did find and use some wonderful fabric for making bibs. It's called 'Minky' and can be used for all sorts of baby things. You can buy it on e-bay and a few internet sites. Google up 'minky fabric' and you'll find it.

Thanks for answering, frida. I'll bear those in mind.

MamaCaz, I will see if I can re-discover the 'links' and post them for you. The thing that 'stuck' in my mind was 'no PVC under 6 months of age, no sleeping wearing PVC bibs/garments due to risk of overheating.

I was thinking of using PVC myself to make bibs/aprons for my baby grandson, so I would be interested to know what information you found.

back again, have found out what i need to know so this post can be deleted by the moderator if neccessary
