Sew the End Seams

  • Fold the washcloth in thirds.
  • Leave one third folded up with the right sides of the washcloth together. (I consider the side with the label the wrong side.)
  • Place a 12" piece of ribbon inside the washcloth into the seam approximately 1" down from the top of the folded washcloth on each end. {To make the kit a roll, sew both ribbons into one end seam. Pin in place.)
  • Sew a seam on each end, backstitching at each end of the seam, sewing on the edge or hem of the washcloth.
  • Turn right side out, being sure to push out the corners.
