Claim Text:
1. A method of manufacturing an absorbent sanitary paper product having a machine direction, a cross-machine direction orthogonal and co-planar thereto, and a Z-direction orthogonal to both the machine- and cross-machine directions, said method comprising the steps of: providing a first network of fibers having a first and a second side, each fiber of said first network of fibers having a longitudinal axis generally disposed within the plane comprising the machine- and cross-machine-directions; applying a first bonding layer in a first pattern to one of said first and second sides of said first network of fibers; and, applying a first second network of fibers to said first bonding layer, each fiber of said first second network of fibers having a longitudinal axis generally disposed within the plane comprising the Z-direction, said first second network of fibers comprising a combination of a first plurality of fibers and a second plurality of fibers, said first and second pluralities of fibers being different.
