GETTING STARTED:
1. To make 1 block, cut out 6 different 5.5" squares. This is the perfect project for fussy cutting. I chose to make 5" square blocks, but you can go with another size as long as you can turn the block right side out and stuff it.
2. Cut (6) 5.5" squares of fusible fleece. Apply the fusible fleece to the wrong side of the fabric.
ASSEMBLING:
2. Stitch 4 squares together to form a row of sqaures. Sew the first square to the last to form a loop.
3. Turn your work wrong side out and pin or clip the bottom square to the body of the block. Stitch with a 1/ 4" seam allowance. Go slowly and turn your work when you get to the corner to get a nice pointed corner. Repeat the process for the top square, making sure to leave an opening to turn your work right side out.
4. Using a hemostat or turning tool, push out the corners and fill your block with fiber to the desired density. Hand stitch with a tight ladder stitch.
