1. Choose a fabric. You need 48 inches long by 15 inches wide.
2. Fold the fabric "right" side on the inside. Stitch 2 sides.
3. Turn "right" side out. Fold raw edge in about 1/2 an inch. Stitch the bottom.
4. Fold 12 inches down and stitch.
5. Flip over. Repeat step 4.
6. You will have something that has a S shape and will slide over the back of the chair to provide a pocket for your student's folder, misc. papers, and poetry / song book.
