Excerpt of the steps from the PDF-manual:
Attention: The unit of measurement used for this project is inches!

Preparation
Step 1
Print out the Nifty Needle Case pattern pieces on pages 4-6, and then cut out each
piece, save for the embroidery design. Set the printer for the lowest ink setting (or
draft setting), and then print only the Lazy Daisy embroidery design page onto a sheet
of SULK® STICKY FABRI-SOLVY. If desired, print a different design, monogram or
motif to suit your taste. Make sure the design or combination of designs isn’t larger
than 2¼" x 3¾".

Step 2
From one cotton fabric, cut two Cases.
From the second cotton fabric, cut one Pocket.
From the quilt batting, cut one Case.
From the Felty, cut two Felt Pages.

Embroidery
Step 3
Cut out the embroidery design(s), leaving a slight border of stabilizer beyond the
outer perimeter. Peel off the paper backing from the STICKY FABRI-SOLVY sheet.
Center the sticker on the front of one fabric Case piece.
Hoop the fabric

Step 4
Thread needle with two strands of SULKY® COTTON PETITES Thread in the desired
color. Fold the thread in half to have four strands. Hand embroider the Lazy Daisy
design to the Case piece.

1. Insert the needle from the fabric wrong side in´the center of one daisy.
2. Thread the needle back through the middle of the daisy from the fabric right side,
creating a loop with the thread.
3. Thread the needle back up through the fabric along the inner upper-edge center of
the loop. Insert the needle through the fabric on the opposite side (outer-edge center)
of the loop. This tacks (or couches) the thread down, creating the daisy petal.
4. Repeat to create each daisy petal.

side; press.
