Instructions
-
Cut fabrics into squares about 3/4" larger than the pre-cut squares in the design foam.
-
Tuck each piece of fabric into the foam, using the bone folder to slide the fabric edges into the slits.
-
Remove the sticky-back paper liner from the back of the panel and center it, sticky side down, on top of an 18" square of fabric.
-
Fold each side of the backer fabric up along each edge of the foam panel, folding and securing with Fabric Fusion tape flush to the top of the panel, tucking and covering the edges of each square. Miter the corners like you're wrapping a gift box.

Glue a strand of yarn around the top edge and glue a button in each corner to frame the panel.
