Hem the panels.
Turn 5mm over to the wrong side along the straight edge
and press. repeat this for a second time so the raw edge
of the fabric is concealed. pin in place. repeat this for
the second panel. stitch the pressed hems, stitching as
close to the inside edge of the turned hem as possible
for a neat finish. backstitch at the start and finish to
fasten the seam.

Join the panels.
With right sides facing, place the two pieces together so
the two hemmed edges meet. starting at the hemmed
base, stitch from a to b. backstitch at the start and
