Step 1Setting it Up

Setting it Up
Cut out a hexagon of paper and a piece of fabric. You can use any kind of fabric for this project, any recyclable material, which you'll also cut out in a pentagon but with a quarter inch seam allowance on all sides. After that, pin the paper to the fabric and try to center it closely as possible.
