Step 5Prepare the bib for sewing
Back to the bib:
Layer your bib backing fabric good side up then your patchwork good side down topped with your cut out flannel template. Be sure your stripes of patchwork are perfectly vertical. Pin the layers together and cut out so the backing and patchwork are the same as the flannel template.
Lay your pocket piece under the bib and trim even with the bottom of the bib and following the curve of the side but make the pocket about 1/2 inch wider than the bib on both sides. (see photo to clarify). The pocket should be about 2-3 inches tall so you will trim off quite a bit from the bottom.
Un-pin the bottom part of the bib and layer the pocket in between the cotton layers of the bib. Pay attention to which side is up so the pocket matches or contrasts the bib as you wish. Re-pin the bottom lining up the edge of the pocket with the edge of the bib (the pocket will puff out a bit in the middle which is the goal).
