Sewing instructions
Step 1
Fold accent strip in a half, bringing the wrong sides together along the longer edge and press to make a crease in the center. Open up the fold, next bring the longer edge to the center crease (keeping the wrong sides together) and press. The fold should be 1/2″. Repeat for the other edge. In the end the accent strip should look like the one below.
Step 2
Fold the strip again from the center.
Step 3
Fold the accent strip from center, bringing the shorter edges together and cut the strip in a half so that in the end you have two equal strips.
