For each TODDLER case, start with 16 inches of 45" width material. (CHILD=start with 18 inches)
This will allow extra fabric for shrinking. We highly recommend you wash and dry the material before
you cut and sew to pre-shrink. Be sure to then iron the fabric flat, keeping the fold in its original
place (i.e. the same way it came off the bolt).
