    2. The front section can be cut slightly shorter on one side so back color shows.
    3. Sew a ¼” seam then trim to a scant 1/8”
    4. Cut out dip in top layer if desired when finished.

    5. Pin patterns, cut out then glue letters into place.  White chalk can be used to draw patterns onto felt if needed. Brush off excess chalk after glue is thoroughly dry.
