This next step may appear to be tricky, but just think back to the cube you are trying to make. Take a look at the pattern, and if it helps cut a pattern from paper and fold it to make a cube. The idea is that you have the row of sides sewn together, now you will sew one side of the top, pivot, and sew the next side until you have joined the top to the sides.

Look at each of the photos below very closely and you will see the progression of steps. Upi will pivot and then continue your seam, and you can see how you will make a turn and your stitching lines will be perpendicular to each other.

Continue this pattern until you have sewn the top to the sides.

You will repeat this same series of steps with the bottom mosaic as well. The only difference is that you will leave a 6" opening along the bottom so that you can stuff the sculpture. In the end you will stitch this opening closed by hand.
