The larger picture is not working, but from what I can see...

You cut each color seperately so you'd end up with one sheet of blue, one of red, and one of yellow.

The yellow you could either cut as solid, or you could cut out the blue and red B's from it. How you would proceed would depend on how you cut your yellow.

If you cut the B's out of your yellow, it will make your shirt a little less heavy, but it will also allow you to press your red first, then your blue, and finally yellow. The only problem with this method would be registration, which will be a little more difficult this way.

If you cut your yellow outlines as solid, without the B's cut from them, you'd press your yellow first, then blue, then red.

Or, at least, that's how I'd do it...

I third that!!

That is exactly how I would proceed.

Depending on the size of the design, you may also want to consider how thick the design might feel if the yellow is solid and not cut as an outline.
