2 yards terry cloth/flannel (Note: Though the terry cloth pictured is light in color, I’m making some with chocolate terry for messes that are likely to stain)
2 yards cotton fabric of your choice
sharp scissors
needle
thread (preferably something that matches your fabric)
ruler or 12×12 stencil (I used a square book)
57-63 snaps (you might want a few extra to practice with)
snap applicator (I used Babyville pliers, but the KAM applicator looks really good, too. Make sure you get one that is compatible with your snaps)
plastic canvas (2-4 sheets of 12×6 sections)
embroidery thread (optional)
superglue (optional)
