Dong Baby Bib
This child’s bib from the Dong people in Guizhou Province, has strong graphic elements made by appliqué and embroidery techniques, plus embellishments of handwoven silk ribbon. Concentric applique bands are hand-stitched with minute running stitches, and fine decorative cross-like stitches outline the lower panel and ornament the corners. The background is finely woven, handspun indigo cotton. (Please see Christi Lan Lin’s Symbolism of Chinese Children’s Bibs; p.68)
