This tutorial and downloadable pattern guide you through mixing and matching fabrics and colors for each panel.

Take each of the panels and zigzag the two longer edges to prevent fraying.  Repeat the steps for all the panels.

Take one-panel piece of each color, keep them overlapping,lining up the edges and sew along the longer edge to join.

Next, place the third (contrasting) panel, above the second, with the right sides together, aligning the edges and sew to join once again.
