CREATIVE CRAFT HELP NEEDED!!! How do I make this Cross-Stitch “Cross Design DIY Lucky Bag”?
I find the cross-stitching part a little confusing, but what’s reall bugging me and making me really annoyed is HOW TO MAKE THE BAG itself…I’m totally not understanding the instructions.
Does anyone no what the instructions are telling me to do????
Here’s the instructions..please Zoom in to the fullest 100% (Original)
And here’s what they want me to make
And here’s an example of the fabric they give me…EXCEPT, you see how this fabric has 4 folds (pannels or whatever)..the one I have has only 3.

The folds are immaterial. The fabric (usually Aida) is only folded to fit in the package. I assume you will simply fold the fabric in half, with the insides facing out, when you are done and stitch the two outside seams. Then turn the fabric right side out for finished product. You would have to check the directions to see if the drawstring is applied when the fabric is inside out or right side out.
The folds will disappear as you stitch. Though the fabric starts out very stiff, it softens as you stitch.
Hope this helps. I am a semi-experienced cross-stitcher. Any more questions, please feel free to email me.
