Assembly:

  1. Sew pocket onto top panel.
  2. If desired, cut 1-2 pieces of corrugated cardboard to fit between top and bottom panel. This adds some sturdiness when there are no markers in the pocket. If you want your eraser to be washable, skip this step.
  3. Sl st the top and bottom panels together as desired. I stitched through the sides of the top panel and just inside the edging of the bottom panel (Update 8/10/18: see picture below for reference).
