Drawing the straps	230

All we have to do know is flip a bunch of points on the other side, and create one single path that follows our bib outline.

First, let's create the points:

points.edgeTopRightCp = points.edgeTopLeftCp.flipX()
points.topCp1 = points.topCp2.flipX()
points.tipLeftTopStart = points.tipRightTopStart.flipX()
points.tipLeftTopCp1 = points.tipRightTopCp1.flipX()
points.tipLeftTopCp2 = points.tipRightTopCp2.flipX()
points.tipLeftTopEnd = points.tipRightTopEnd.flipX()
points.tipLeftBottomStart = points.tipRightBottomStart.flipX()
points.tipLeftBottomCp1 = points.tipRightBottomCp1.flipX()
points.tipLeftBottomCp2 = points.tipRightBottomCp2.flipX()
points.tipLeftBottomEnd = points.tipRightBottomEnd.flipX()
points.snapRight = points.snapLeft.flipX()

Now, remove the neck and rect paths that we created earlier, and replace them with this new path:

paths.seam = new Path()
  .move(points.edgeLeft)
  .line(points.bottomLeft)
  .line(points.bottomRight)
  .line(points.edgeRight)
  .curve(
    points.edgeRightCp, 
    points.edgeTopRightCp, 
    points.tipLeftTopStart
  )
  .curve(
    points.tipLeftTopCp1, 
    points.tipLeftTopCp2, 
    points.tipLeftTopEnd
  )
  .curve(
    points.tipLeftBottomCp1,
    points.tipLeftBottomCp2,
    points.tipLeftBottomEnd
  )
  .curve(
    points.topCp1, 
    points.rightCp2, 
    points.right
  )
  .curve(
    points.rightCp1, 
    points.bottomCp2, 
    points.bottom
  )
  .curve(
    points.bottomCp1, 
    points.leftCp2, 
    points.left
  )
  .curve(
    points.leftCp1, 
    points.topCp2, 
    points.tipRightBottomEnd
  )
  .curve(
    points.tipRightBottomCp2,
    points.tipRightBottomCp1,
    points.tipRightBottomStart
  )
  .curve(
    points.tipRightTopCp2,
    points.tipRightTopCp1,
    points.tipRightTopStart
  )
  .curve(
    points.edgeTopLeftCp, 
    points.edgeLeftCp, 
    points.edgeLeft
  )
  .close()
  .attr("class", "fabric")

The round macro we added earlier is still drawing a half-circle. We cannot remove the macros, or the points it creates would also disappear. Luckily, we can simply set render to false and keep the points without drawing the curves between them:

macro("round", {
  from: points.edgeTop,
  to: points.tipRight,
  via: points.tipRightTop,
  prefix: "tipRightTop",
  render: false // set this from true to false
})
macro("round", {
  from: points.tipRight,
  to: points.top,
  via: points.tipRightBottom,
  prefix: "tipRightBottom",
  render: false // set this from true to false
})

You can also remove the render line completely. More on this in the next section.

With that out of the way, our bib now looks like this:

We used the part.attr() method to style our path? But because the fabric class is drawn in black, it doesn't look much different. We'll use some other classes later that will make its effect more clear.

It's looking pretty good. But those sharp corners at the bottom don't exactly say baby do they? Let's fix that.
