Pin down the pattern to the chosen material
Make sure you follow the exact shape of the pattern
Cut the shape in the chosen material
Make small cuts on the dotted lines to act as a guide for overlap when sewing together

STEP 4sewing the ring
![Page 13: OPEN SOURCE BLANKET DESIGN · 8 Print templates out on A4 paper Align circles and tape or glue together Ensure templates are the right size - they should measure 15 cm wide Cut out](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060216/5f0620ba7e708231d4166e18/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
Using the same template, cut 22 parts
Sew along the 1cm overlap, using the small cuts as a guide
Layer 2 parts together aligning the overlap
Unfold the material

14
Iron the overlap to flatten the section Repeat the process 21 times to achieve a full circle. Leave the ends open as this allows you to wrap the ring around a tree.
You should end up with a full circle

16
Fold your seating circle fabric in half. Mark out a half circle - it should have a radius of 500mm.
Cut out four half circles
Unfold - you should now have four 1-metre diameter circles Cut a small slit, 10mm from the edge of the circle (this is where the button goes)
