Take the green edge and place it along the bottom of your watermelon. Sew the edge on to
the bottom, I prefer to start on the upper side on the backside of the watermelon.
When you have about 5 cm left start stuffing. Don´t stuff it to hard and flatten it as you are
stuffing so it get a nice flat watermelon slice shape. (Pictures on pages 8-9)
