Materials:

12” Foamology On-the-Grid tiles (we used 9)
Printed cotton fabrics in assorted sizes. (we used approximately 1yd each of seven coordinating fabrics)
Cutting tool – you can use Scissors, Pinking Shears or a Rotary cutter and mat.
Quilting ruler
Glue Gun
Tacky Glue or Fabric Glue (optional)
Butter knife

Planning Your Project:

You can design your pattern on grid paper or just let your creative juices flow and make it up as you go along.
To determine the size of fabric to cut:

Allow one inch of fabric to tuck into the inner grooves.
Allow three inches of fabric to wrap around and adhere to the back.

For corners, make sure you have three inches on the top or bottom and side to wrap around and adhere to the back.
Use pinking shears to cut the fabric with clean, fray free edges.

Instructions:

Always work from center to the side edges.
Position fabric piece on soft foam and tuck into grooves with a butter knife. Secure with a line of glue to make it permanent.
When wrapping fabric around the foam to the back, fold the fabric as you like around the side, then secure on the stickybase™.
It’s best to peel back stickybase liner from edges as you work – DO NOT remove entirely until you are ready to mount to the wall.
Use a glue gun on the back corners to secure fabric in place.
