You Will Need (4 things)

  • Fat quarter (18" x 22") Cotton Fabric Color: Green
  • Interfacing
  • Twill Patch Color: White
  • 60 in Yarn Color: White

Steps (10 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    Gather materials.

  2. 2

    Draw letters on twill patch and carefully cut out.

  3. 3

    Cut 24 3.25-inch squares of fabric and 12 3-inch squares of interfacing. Iron letters onto two green squares.

  4. 4

    Sandwich each piece of interfacing between two pieces of green fabric.

  5. 5

    Pin them all in place.

  6. 6

  8. 8

    Braid fairly tightly.
