  Step 1

  Create four 4½ x 5¼-inch double-sided fabric sheets and one 4½-inch square double-sided sheet.

• 

  Step 2

  In the center of the 4½-inch square sheet, measure and draw a 1 x 2½-inch rectangle.

• 

  Step 3

  Draw a 1½-inch line lengthwise down the center of the rectangle, then finish the line on each end with a triangle that connects at the corners.

• Step 4

  Cut on the center line and the triangles to form an opening.

• 

  Step 5

  Fold back the four flaps you’ve created and use strips of tape to secure them in place.

• 

  Step 6

  To assemble the sides, arrange the remaining sheets on the cutting mat with the wrong sides up. The square should be in the center with the four rectangles on the sides.

• 

  Step 7

  Cut two 4½-inch strips of tape in half lengthwise and use them to attach the four sides to the square.

• 

  Step 8

  Cut four 5¼-inch strips and place them halfway over each side of two opposite rectangles.

• 

  Step 9

  Lift a side with overhang and the side next to it. With the overhang on the inside, line the edges up and connect them to create a corner. Be sure to press down the tape on the inside.

• Step 10

  Repeat with the other sides and turn the cover over.

• 

  Step 11

  Cut a 4½-inch strip of tape in half lengthwise and use the strips to cover the top seams on two opposite sides.

• 

  Step 12

  Cut two additional 4½-inch strips of tape in half lengthwise and use them to trim the four bottom edges.

• 

  Step 13

  Now cut a 16-inch strip of tape in half lengthwise. On one of the remaining sides, center the strip over the top seam and bring it down around either side.

• 

  Step 14

  Cut a slit in the top corners and lay the tape flat.

• Step 15

  Fold the remaining tape around the bottom to the inside.

• Step 16

  Repeat on the other side.
