Now, place your bottom panel on top of your Vintage
Seed Packets panels with right sides together. Be sure to
align your bottom panel accordingly so the designs face
the correct orientation. Pin in place, then sew the blocks
together using a 1⁄2” seam allowance.
Once you have finished running the embroidery, your design
will look something like this. Remove it from the hoop and
remove any excess Tear-Away stabilizer from the back.

Once you have stitched your panels together, fold the
bottom panel down and press with a stream iron. Your joined
panel should look something like this.
Fold your fully stitched panels in half with right sides facing
together, aligning the two end blocks at their tacking stitches.
Pin in place and sew together at 1⁄2” seam allowance.

Now it is time to cut out the bottom circle for your bag. Start
by trimming out a square that measures 11” x 11”. This will give
you plenty of room to cut out your circle and account for
seam allowance.
Fold your square in half.
