Instructions:

From the striped fabric, cut 2 rectangles that are 4" by 4 1/2" and one rectangle that is 4 1/2" by 5 1/2". From the solid fabric, cut one rectangle that is 4 1/2" by 5 1/2". From the Interfacing, cut 2 rectangles that are 2" by 3 1/2".

On the right side of the solid colored piece, mark a 3 1/2" by 4 1/2" rectangle, centered in the piece. Sew the embroidery in the bottom half of the marked rectangle.

On the wrong side of the embroidered piece, use the fusible webbing to fuse the interfacing to the fabric. The two pieces of interfacing should be centered on the rectangle as shown, with a 1/4" space between the pieces.

Lay the striped (4 1/2" by 5 1/2") rectangle right side up. Fold the other two rectangles in half, making folded pieces that are 2 3/4" by 4 1/2". Lay the folded pieces at each end of the larger rectangle. The folds should be toward the inside of the larger rectangle.

Lay the solid-colored rectangle with the right side down on top of the striped pieces.
