Each layer is configured to provide an apron (10), While the top and back layers continue to flow in continues format to provide a C shaped collar (12). An adhesive bond (24) is provided throughout the bib to adhere each layer, one to another, and configured within the apron (10) to provide a cross-stitch pattern equivalent to quilting, to aid in controlling the expansion of the absorbent inner-core.
