Step 3Manetowel - Adhesive strips
Cut out strips of the adhesive. You will need 5 strips:
Height of blue box (1.5cm), 2 strips
Height of orange box (3cm), 2 strips
Entire width of fabric (3cm), 1 strip
After a bit of trial & error, I found that it's actually easier to work with the strips if they are slightly shorter than you need. We're not going for a complete seam seal here, so it's okay if there are small gaps where the pieces of sticky meet. Cutting the strips about 1-2mm (0.1-0.2cm) shorter should be fine.
I bought 3/8" wide adhesive because I couldn't find anything narrower, so I ended up cutting the strips in half lengthwise so as to waste minimal area on the adhesive. (3/8" ~~ 1cm, so half that is about 0.5cm which is the measurement I used in calculating the fabric dimensions)
