Fabric Needed NO KITS AVAILABLE
• Panel fabric; 12” x 44 (be sure your fabric is at least 44” wide) Cut - 2 – 3” x WOF (side panels) and 1 – 5” x WOF (center panel)
-If your fabric is not 44” you will need 1 ⅓ yards so you can cut your panels lengthwise
-You will be quilting on the panel fabric. Choose fabric and thread for high contrast or low contrast
• Sashing & binding fabric; 15” x 44” (or width of fabric) (be sure your fabric is at least 44” wide) Cut 2 – 1.5” x WOF (sashing) and 3 – 3” x WOF (binding)
• Backing fabric; 20” x 44” (or width of fabric)
• Batting; 18” x 44” (or same as backing fabric)
You will have some fabric left over after you trim the piece to size, but it will be much easier to keep everything in the hoop if the batting and backing are oversized.
