#### Before we start: One layer or two?
First thing you need to figure out is whether you're going to make a 1-layer (simple) bib,
or do you want to make one out of two layers.
A two-layer bib gives you more options, as you can use an absorbent backing layer like
terrycloth, yet still have the entire cotton selection of your local fabric store available
as your choice for the front layer, aka the visible one.
:::
## Step 1: Optional: Join layers
If you decide to go for two layers, simply join them together at the edges before applying
the bias tape.
You probably want to pin or baste this prior to sewing. The two different types of fabric
will behave differently, so secure them in place prior to sewing the together.
Make sure to sew close to the edge so that the stitches will be under the bias tape
finish later.
## Step 2: Apply bias tape
We're going to apply bias tape as a finish around the entire edge of the bib.
You probably want to start at the bottom strap, as this way the joint of the bias
seam will be covered when the bib is worn.
Just work your way around, and take your time.
## Step 3: Install snaps or button
Next, install the snaps on the straps, as indicated on the pattern.
If you don't have or want snaps, you can also use a button + buttonhole.
## Step 4: You're done!
That was easy 😃

title: Head size
---
Controls the size of the bib, as it will be drafted to fit this head circumference.
In our tutorial (this bib is what we use in our tutorial to show people the ropes
of designing their own patterns) we use a measurement for this.
But we feel that's a bit overkill for real-world use on our site, so we've made it an option.

title: Neck ratio

Controls the size of the neck opening relative to the bib size. The bib size is determined by [head size](/docs/designs/bob/options#headsize), this option controls how much to reduce the head size by to determine the circumference and width of the neck opening.
- Increase the percentage to widen the neck opening.
- Decrease the percentage to constrict the neck opening.

## Designer Notes {#notes}
The only reason I designed this pattern is because I wanted something very
simple to use in our [pattern design
tutorial](https://freesewing.dev/tutorials/pattern-design).
In fact, I considered this design too simple to include on FreeSewing.org and
for many years it was not available.
But then users started asking _why_ it was not available, and I didn't really
have a good answer for that.
So here it is. A fully parametric bib named Bob.

## What You Need {#needs}
To make Bob, you will need the following:
- [Basic sewing supplies](/docs/sewing/basic-sewing-supplies)
- A little bit of suitable fabric ([see Fabric options](/docs/designs/aaron/fabric))
- Enough bias tape to go around the entire bib
- A snap or other type of fastener
## Fabric Options {#fabric}
An bib should be soft, absorbent, and be able to handle plenty of washing cycles.
In addition, natural fibres are much preferred, especially for babies.
So use cotton, flannel, or jersey knit for the bib front of the bib, and back it with
something like terrycloth (aka towel fabric) or a similar bamboo-based fabric.
## Cutting Instructions {#cutting}
- Cut **1 bib**
:::warning
#### Caveats
- There is no seam allowance on the bib, it will be finished with bias tape
