Cut 4 matching length of strips of fabric. Cut the fabric diagonal to the grain. 2. Iron the strips lengthwise to the middle of the strip so that you have a middle crease. 3. Fold the long edges to the middle crease and iron again. 4. Fold the two ironed edges over and iron again. 5. Pin the strips now over the sides of your mini- wall hanging. Start with the long sides and finish with the short sides. On the last 2 sides, you will need to fold over the outside edges of the strips to make a nice edge. 6. Quilt the layers together by stitching in the ditch. This is done by sewing exactly into the already sewn lines of your work. 7. Make 3 loops for the top of the wall hanging and sew them to the back side of your project. 8. Use a tight zig-zag stitch and matching thread to stitch around your fused motifs.
