Iron desired fabric to fusible fleece. You will need 8- 4" pieces of grosgrain ribbon. I used a lighter to heat seal the ends.
Measure 2" in from every corner and pin ribbon in to place.
Stitch ribbon in to place. Then lay the 2nd fabric square on top placing right sides together.
Pin into place.
Stitch a 1/4" seam all around leaving a 3" opening to pull fabric right side out.
Snip all 4 corners off.
Pull fabric through the opening. Turning right side out
Makes a fun message holder!
Here I placed the ribbon ties 3" at each corner this will make taller side walls!
