each piece in center crosswise, and crease so each side

is approx. 8.5" x 9". Unfold piece and transfer two

designs to it, on the same side, having one in the center

of each square (as folded). Be careful to keep letters in

alphabetical order.

Page Order:

After all pages have been embroidered, refold each

piece on original crease (which will be outer edge of a

double page), trim upper and lower edges with pinking

shears. Use extra plain piece for cover, folding and

trimming in the same manner. Sew all back edges

together in one seam, then cover raw seams with a

bright colored binding.
