4.9 - VILLETTE - Final assembly of the bob

• Place yourself on the wrong side of your bucket hat (NB: the visor is on the right side on both sides since we have already assembled it)
• Fold the visor inside the hat
• Take your second bob bottom and place it on its right side.

We will fit it inside our bob, keeping the Visor inserted between the two as in the diagram below (the two bob bottoms are thus right sides together):

• Pin all along, making sure the seams match up: the side seam of Bob Bottom No. 1 matches the side seam of Bob Bottom No. 2
• When pinning, remember to leave a space of about 7 cm without pins: this space will allow us to completely turn our bobby pin right side out before the final stitching. We will stitch all the way along, leaving these 7 cm unstitched.

💡 Tip: we advise you to put 2 pins placed in a different direction than the others on both sides of this hole so as not to miss it when pricking (it happened to us! Without realizing it we pricking all around and forgetting to leave the hole, so we could no longer turn our bob right side out).

Like just now, increase the length of your stitch if necessary (as the needle will go through several layers of fabric and not just 2).

• Sew all around the bob with a straight stitch, always 1 cm from the edge: start on one side of the hole with a backstitch and finish on the other side of the hole, going around it, also with a backstitch.
