For this project you will need:
- A scrap piece of plywood or particle board. My board is 20" x 24".
- 100% cotton fabric measuring 6" larger than your board. My board is 20" x 24" so the fabric is 26" x 30". For a 24" x 48" board, you will need fabric measuring 30" x 54".
- Two pieces of 100% cotton batting the same size as the fabric.
- Staple gun and staples
