So, I used glue and got everything pieced together pretty quickly. Then I noticed that some of the 'tabs' were starting to fray a bit, so I ended up using Heat n Bond lite to seal it all down. It probably took me twice as long to do it after, than it would have if I had done it from the start. If I ever make this again, I will use the heat & bond lite before I cut the tabs. Another lesson learned on my quilting journey! I plan to start quilting it tomorrow. I'll post pics when done.
