"So now we have our little squares and what we are going to start by doing is that I’ve got my ironing board out, I've got the setting back on cotton and I also have a separate area where I have the spray adhesive in a covered area so that we can use that. Remember what I said earlier you want to keep these two separate and for the next step we are going to be using both of them. Now that we’ve got our pattern all lined up and you should take your pattern and move it to a separate little place so that it is safe, you want to take your little squares and we are going to start folding them in so that they look like little quilt pieces. I’m ironing them down because it makes them easier to work with which is another reason that we are going to be using spray adhesive. We are going to folding each of our little squares. Now be careful with your fingers when you are ironing here because it can get kind of little bit hazardous there. They may not fold all the way down. You can see this one pops back up but when we put the spray adhesive on here and attach it to the stocking, it is going to be great. Don’t forget also that you need your heavy book now to because you are going to take your little piece. See now we have a smaller little square and what we are going to do is spray it and we will come over here and we will attach it to our little stocking area. "
