Before You Begin
Read all instructions before beginning project. Do not pre-wash fabrics. Press fabrics with a dry iron on cotton setting before cutting. Use a ¼" (6.35 mm) seam allowance and sew fabrics with right sides together (RST) unless otherwise noted. Press seams in the direction of the arrows. wof = width of fabric
Note: A printed panel may become slightly skewed during the finishing process. Check if panel is square before cutting by folding the panel so selvages meet. If all edges do not meet, pull firmly from corner to corner until the edges meet. Continue until all corners are square.
Cutting
Use a rotary cutter and ruler to cut the size and number of squares and rectangles from each fabric listed below.
