Pin the collar to the jacket body assembly at the neckline, with the front edges of the piping flush with the top center edges of the bibs and matching center backs.
Sew the collar to the jacket body.
TIP: If you're using rib-knit as a substitute for the wool elastique, take care not to stretch the necklines of the bibs and/or yokes! With the batting and backing cut away, it's easy for the rib-knit to stretch out of shape when attaching the collar.
Turn the seam allowance downward, and press the top ⅜" of the zipper trim downward (wrong sides together).
Remember, the collar, bib, and zipper trim should form a nice three-way intersection at a bib quilt line:
