BIBS AND BRACES
Adding bibs to trousers and skirts makes the
garment more fun to wear, and extra buttonholes
in the braces allow plenty of room for growth.
Two, or even three, buttonholes can be made on
the end of the braces, and if the braces button at
the back (as on the girl's Pinafore Dress) extra
buttonholes can be added to the other end as well.
