Directions for printing and making the sack are not included but there are a multitude of posts on Pinterest about printing on muslin. I use the freezer paper method. It is not for the faint of heart and I recommend using a spare printer if you have one. I use a thin well pressed muslin that has been pre-dyed. There is a copy of the print in the set without the 'old paper' colouring and you'll want to use that one. That is why it's important to already have your fabric a darker shade. You cannot dye it or add a water based stain after it is printed as the ink will run. I got a spritz of water on my 'O' and it ran. Yikes.
Basic sewing skills are all that is required to sew the bag and again, there are many sources on Pinterest for doing so. I made a narrow hem at the top and used crochet cotton to gather the bag after stuffing it first with a few dry beans for weight and then fibrefill. That's it! Easy, peasy.
