  2. Sew a pink strip onto the foundation, for the patch 5 area, by aligning it right side down with its right edge overlapping the patch's left line by about 1/4". The top and bottom of the strip should extend slightly past the outermost foundation lines on the top and bottom.

  3. Sew, check placement, trim through all seam allowance layers, flip upright and finger press.

Note: some patches are shown lighter and/or opaque so that you can see the lines underneath. Colors don't truly differ.
