A method for assembling disposable absorbent articles, the method comprising the steps of: advancing a continuous topsheet substrate having a first surface and an opposing second surface in a machine direction; advancing a continuous leg cuff substrate having a first surface and an opposing second surface in the machine direction, and defining a width in a cross direction, wherein the leg cuff substrate includes opposing first and second longitudinal edges (402a, 402b) and laterally opposed first and second edge regions (400a, 400b) separated by a central region; advancing elastic strands in the machine direction in a stretched state; intermittently bonding the elastic strands in the stretched state to the first surface of the leg cuff substrate; folding the first edge region of the leg cuff substrate onto a portion of either the first edge region, the central region, or the second edge region of the leg cuff substrate such that the stretched elastic strands are positioned between the first surface of the folded first edge region and the first surface of the portion of either the first edge region, the central region, or the second edge region to form an elastic laminate, the elastic laminate including bonded regions and non-bonded regions intermittently spaced along the machine direction, wherein the elastic strands are bonded to the leg cuff substrate in the bonded regions, and wherein the elastic strands are not bonded to the leg cuff substrate in the non-bonded regions; severing elastic strands in the non-bonded regions of the elastic laminate to form a continuous length of leg gasketing assemblies having elastic regions intermittently spaced along the machine direction between deactivated regions; bonding the continuous length of leg gasketing assemblies with the continuous topsheet substrate; and cutting the continuous topsheet substrate and continuous length of leg gasketing assemblies along the cross direction in deactivated regions. advancing a continuous topsheet substrate having a first surface and an opposing second surface in a machine direction; advancing a continuous leg cuff substrate having a first surface and an opposing second surface in the machine direction, and defining a width in a cross direction, wherein the leg cuff substrate includes opposing first and second longitudinal edges (402a, 402b) and laterally opposed first and second edge regions (400a, 400b) separated by a central region; advancing elastic strands in the machine direction in a stretched state; intermittently bonding the elastic strands in the stretched state to the first surface of the leg cuff substrate; folding the first edge region of the leg cuff substrate onto a portion of either the first edge region, the central region, or the second edge region of the leg cuff substrate such that the stretched elastic strands are positioned between the first surface of the folded first edge region and the first surface of the portion of either the first edge region, the central region, or the second edge region to form an elastic laminate, the elastic laminate including bonded regions and non-bonded regions intermittently spaced along the machine direction, wherein the elastic strands are bonded to the leg cuff substrate in the bonded regions, and wherein the elastic strands are not bonded to the leg cuff substrate in the non-bonded regions; severing elastic strands in the non-bonded regions of the elastic laminate to form a continuous length of leg gasketing assemblies having elastic regions intermittently spaced along the machine direction between deactivated regions; bonding the continuous length of leg gasketing assemblies with the continuous topsheet substrate; and cutting the continuous topsheet substrate and continuous length of leg gasketing assemblies along the cross direction in deactivated regions.
