Steps To Complete
|
To start your dice or catch-all tray, first print the PDF pattern for the size tray you want. If the pattern is larger than a piece of printer paper, line up the pattern pieces using the included registration marks and secure the paper pieces together with a piece of tape. |
|
After joining the pattern pieces, trace the pattern with an air erase pen on the wrong side of your material. We are using faux leather in this tutorial. Repeat this twice. One piece will be the top of the catch-all tray and the other will be the bottom layer of the catch-all. |
|
Cut out the two pieces of your material for the tray. |
|
Use your air-erase or leather marking pen to transfer the snap placement dots from the pattern to one of the tray pieces. You can also print a template of the design using embroidery software. If you do not have embroidery software, cut a piece of plain paper to the dimensions of your design, |
|
Next, use your template or your previous measurements to draw additional crosshairs on the stablizer using a ruler and an air-erase pen. |
|
Hoop the stabilizer with the crosshairs centered. |
