Lay out Motifs on a flat surface, covered with an ironing cloth. Pin out each Motif to measurements. Cover with a slightly damp cloth and leave to dry. Remove the pins only when the cloth and the Motif are perfectly dry.

Now join all the Motifs, using yarn needle or crochet hook, taking corresponding edge stitches of two neighboring Motifs. Follow preferred arrangement.
