I have purchased only two kits and had some problems with the instructions on both of them. You could do what they asked but it was very awkward and after making one walker bag, I figured out how to attach the top edge without all the hassle. Also made some book covers and a little sewing kit. The sewing kit instructions were atrocious. I just figured out what would work and did it my way and it turned out fine. I'm not usually too excited about the color combinations, really prefer to choose from my stash.
