This is great, and after all is said and done, I think you made a very nice tutorial. I have this one saved as a webpage, and some nice fabric to make it with.
I appreciate techniques that don't require a lot of equipment.

Wow...pulled this up and knew I had to make this. Luckily I just finished several things so can start on this without a guilty conscience. Thanks so much for sharing and the tut!

Thank you for your time and trouble posting this tute. I have found it very informative and the mistakes are good because I know what to watch out for. Most times we read what can happen but it does not actually sink in until it does happen, not that I am wishing mistakes to happen. Not at all just that I learn better with visual examples. Thank you. It is a great tutorial. :D:

The red dots represent the corners where the pink fabric meets with the black. Match these points on the FABRIC with the white lines on the RULER. You will have to move the ruler around a bit until BOTH dots are on the line. As shown, leave ¼ inch above the left hand dot [this is your seam allowance], and 1 ¼ inch above the right hand dot. Once you are all lined up, you can cut.
THE ONLY ERROR YOU CAN MAKE THAT IS UPSETTING COULD HAPPEN ON THIS STEP. To avoid this possible error, make sure you have ¼ above the right hand dot, this is your seam allowance and if you cut it off you will not be happy!
