I don't have an actual pattern, but I took picture as I went along. I am brand new at this so I hope it works.

Cut your squares 11x11

If you want to stagger the envelopes add 11 x 5 1/2 piece material to top of first square then bottom of second etc.Any embroidery should be done before you add to the rows. Cut 1 1/2 strips of material the length of the rows. Connect them in the same manner as the squares

Press open the strip lay rows right sides together and sew the length of the row. Continue adding rows untill desired width
