2. Sew two lines on raw edge using a basting stitch. The first line at approx 1/8 from edge and the second line approx 1/4 from edge.
3. Now take top two threads at end and pull to gather. Gather until you have length to match bottom raw edge of bibs.

7. Stitch to join the two belt pieces together as shown.
Trim seam to 1/4 inch and press. Your fabric will be approx 86 inches long. Trim belt fabric to a length you feel is appropriate for your waist. You should trim at least 10 inches off. I trimmed mine to 70 inches. **Set this access aside, you will use this for the neck later.
8. Turn belt fabric RST (right sides together) Start at folded edge and stitch rounded to the raw edge. Then stitch along raw edge with 1/4 inch seam allowance. Leave an opening approx 3 inches wide on long side for turning. Trim rounded ends before turning.
