Print Project

Step 1

First, click here for the design in Cricut® Design Space™.
TIP: Read through all project steps before beginning.

Step 2

To make changes to this project, use the mat preview screen to move pieces to different mats or colors.
TIP: Do not rotate the pieces, as they are arranged to follow the print of the fabric.

Step 3

Pre-cut fabric by hand to fit on mat. Please note the direction of the print for each fabric piece.
TIP: Allow the excess fabric to hang off the end of the mat. This way, if you do not cut to the end of the mat, you can simply trim off the cut portion and use the leftovers for another project!

Step 4

To cut mat 1, place light gray fabric right side down on to the mat.

Step 5

To cut mat 2, place teal fabric right side down on to the mat.
TIP: Familiarize yourself with the pieces of the project.

Step 6

With right sides together, pin the two bean-shape pieces together.

Step 7

Sew with a ¼" [6 mm] seam around the edge of the bean pieces, leaving a 1"-2" [2.5 cm-5.1 cm] opening for turning in the middle straight area.

Step 8

Clip all curves generously.

Step 9

Using a chopstick (or other turning tool), turn the pieces right side out through the turning hole. Press all seams.

Step 10

Top stitch the entire shape, making sure to close the turning hole as well.
