The seam allowance for this project is ¼” and ½”. Seam allowance is indicated at each step.

Finished Size: Approximately 4” × 5¾”

Materials:
*This project uses a combination of quilting cotton and faux suede for Print A. If you would like to use the combination pictured in the project samples (checker board pattern alternating between the two), refer to the cutting instructions. The purchasing quantities include assorted fat eighths or a 2½” jelly roll. Please note that you will have a lot of leftover fabrics if you select this option so you may want to make a few pouches.

Directional fabric is not recommended for the 4½” × 2½” Print A pieces. See video 01:03.

The fusible fleece is dependent on the materials selected for Print A as it will only be fused to pieces that are 100% quilting cotton (or similar). Refer to the cutting instructions for options and see video 02:35.
