This is one of my favorite projects. It is so easy to make, and it can be made larger or smaller.
You can also make it in so many different looks, it’s also great for some quick (and great looking) organization (papers, string, scrap, photos, tons of other things as well).

If you would like to jump ahead (this will be in part two) secure the overlapping areas with buttons, or just a needle and thread.
