The point of the over-apron strip is to keep the velcro's stiching from showing. I don't think that's clear in the instructions. (It's not terribly in the first edition, I don't remember if that got changed or not.)
Welcome to X-marks! Dont' forget to post the obligitory pleat shots when you're done!
The other thing that's not in the instructions about the velcro is to put the fuzzy side (hooks) on the outer apron (ie, facing your body). It doesn't make a functional difference, but it does keep you from getting stuck by stiff loops, if the velcro pieces aren't matched perfectly.
