Pre-wash your fabric. I used cheap denim
(if you can call $12.99 a yd. cheap. I used a 50% off coupon... but still!)
because I want to be able to throw it in the wash.
You'll want to put together your top "box" first. Measure your top piece of fabric first and then your sides. Add a little extra for seam allowances.

Stitch the 4 pieces together as shown in my picture..... always press. That was something that the Home Ec. Teacher always told us. I'm sorry that girls don't have that option these days... Oh well... I guess that is what the Blogs are for. LOL!
Stitch your corners together...
Now your going to want to add your ruffle. To make the ruffle, I measured all the way around the ottoman and then quadrupled that measurement. Divided it into 4 and cut 4 pieces of fabric that were each long enough to allow for a hem.
