foam sheets along one 22" edge. Use glue gun to glue half of

divide border into thirty-six 2" squares. Use yardstick and
sharp pencil to score pattern lines.

allowance into pattern lines. Repeat with trunk and all cream
satin sections. Fabric should be smooth and taut. For border
squares, tuck three sides into foam and glue fourth side down outside edge.
