Instructions (to be finished for the November meeting)

Gross Grain Ribbon – 2 ribbons, each 28 inches long.
Take your fabric and fold it in half with right sides together, so that it measures 16 ½ X 41 inches. See picture 1.
Measure in 4 ½ inches in from both sides and pin ribbon at this point with the fold of the ribbon along the edge with the long edge of the ribbon facing you. Pin in place.
Pin all around the open edges of you rectangle.
Sew a ¼ inch seam all around your rectangle leaving a 2 ½ inch opening to turn your fabric right side out.
Turn fabric right side out and press.
Topstitch ¼ inch all around the rectangle making sure that the ribbons are not caught up in your stitching.
