stitches and under the single loops of the foundation chain bases. Sew the first 27 stitches of piece C to the first 27 founda-tion chain bases of piece B. Sew the first 27 stitches of piece D to the first 27 foundation chain bases of piece C. Sew the first 20 stitches of piece E to the first 20 foundation chain bases of piece D.

Step 2

With yarn needle and yarn, and starting at the end opposite the safety pins, sew the first 27 stitches of piece B to the first 27 foundation chain bases of piece A by using a running stitch under both loops of the stitches and under the single loops of the foundation chain bases. Sew the first 27 stitches of piece C to the first 27 foundation chain bases of piece B. Sew the first 27 stitches of piece D to the first 27 foundation chain bases of piece C.
