Default installment 4 Batting and finishing the square
Cut desired batting to approximate size of square (when all 4 edges are sewn together, open up the bottom so it sits flat and the sides stick up with a hole in the top) However thick you want.


The wrong side of the fabric will be facing out. The right side is inside. Using a large safety pin, pin the batting to the square from inside the hole (right side of fabric). Turn inside out, work the corners and batting out.


Fold raw edges at the top of opening in and sew a large gathering stitch. I use a heavy duty thread, doubled for this part. Pull tight, tie off, make one quilt stitch through the bottom where the folds cross, back up and tie off again. Square is done
