Description
This pattern includes all the pieces you need to make your own Headrest Bib that will fit your Tula Explore baby carrier. Pattern pieces include your choice of 1/2 inch or 1 cm seam allowance; cut out the pattern using the seam allowance that you prefer to sew with.
This pattern has three pieces. Piece A is short, it just covers the headrest. Piece B is long, it adds extra protection, particularly when your baby is forward-facing. Includes the Free Tule Explore size straight suck pads to make it a set. 
You can use any combination of the A&B pieces to make your perfect bib. The most commonly made combo is the Short/Long or AB bib; think “mullet”. This is perfect if you ever forward-face. When the headrest is down, the long side B wraps over the top edge and tucks between your baby and the carrier. This protects the top edge from drool. The suck pads protect the straps.
This pattern is reversible! So even though I call the two outside layers “Fashion Fabric” and “Lining”, they are more like “Side 1” and “Side 2”. Keep in mind that when the headrest is down (folded to the outside), the fabric will be upside down. If you are using directional fabric for the AB layout, be sure to follow the grain-line arrows on the pattern pieces (arrow points up). If you are using another combination of the A & B pattern pieces, follow the cutting diagrams.
Got a super drooler? You can also choose to use PUL or other waterproof fabric inside or as the backing, for ultimate carrier protection. You can be as creative with this pattern as you desire: add trim or embroidery, go off pattern and add pockets, or make it out of satin or slippery fabric to keep your little one’s curls from being mussed. The possibilities are endless!
