 |
1.) Gather your supplies. |
 |
2.) Cut two (2) pieces of mat board and five (5) pieces of quilt batting to fit the size of your design. |
 |
3.) Take three (3) pieces of the quilt batting, line up, and glue together.
4.) Take remaining two (2) pieces of quilt batting and glue one piece to each mat board. |
 |
5.) Take a piece of fabric 1″ wider and longer on each side than the back piece of padded mat board, wrap it, and glue it mitering the corners as you go. |
 |
6.) Wrap and glue the needlework around the front piece of padded mat board. |
 |
7.) Glue the 3 pieces of quilt batting between the front and back pieces and put under a book to let dry. |
 |
8.) Cut an approximate 2″ wide piece of fabric long enough to wrap around the four sides. Fold about 2/3 the way up and finger press.
9.) Fold long fabric over the two glued pieces and glue down. (I used some of pins to help tack the fabric in place.) |
 |
10.) Add pins into the sides of the pinkeep.
11.) Use a piece of ribbon to make and bow and add to the top of the pinkeep. (optional) |
