    I made one the other night. I forgot to take a pic and gave it to my mom. I know I'll be making more so I'll take some then.
    I used a sour cream container top and 5 1/2" circle of fabric (I wasn't sure about the 5 3/3" in the instructions) and mine seemed a little shorter. It took me about 3 hours to complete because of hand sewing, I couldn't figure out how to get it on my machine. :-(

    Unfortunately Mrs Shak it is a hand sewing project, but glad you are finding the tutorial good and making your own adjustments

    The original uses a 4" embroidery hoop. I didnīt have one at the time so I used a piece of rubber tubing and joing it together with staples. Others have used the top of certain containers, just look for something that is 4" round
