Put your top and bottom together with “wrong” sides facing each other. It really do not matter which side you use as your “wrong” side, I just use the side where my ends are sticking out so I can hide them easily inside of the scrubby! 

You may want to use a stitch marker or 2 to hold them together if you are having trouble holding them and stitching them together at once.

Ss top and bottom together, when you get halfway around your circles, tuck the other end of your handle between your top and bottom, make sure you ss goes through all 3 layers, then finish ss around to end. (You should have 40 ss)  Finish off and enjoy!
