Sooooo, eight years ago I posted about making some tissue covers, you can read about it here.
I ended the post saying that I would be making more....
Eight years later, I did!!
These were all vintage fabrics again, but I have no idea what sales they came from this time. Many different ones.
I have fabric sorted very roughly into colors and kept in clear bags or tubs so I can see what is inside. Most of the pieces are scraps and often quite small so the piecing together is needed. But, that is what makes them so fun.
I have to say, it's pretty time intensive because of the choices and the limitations on fabric sizes, but time well spent in the midst of all this color and pattern!
I didn't put in the little tab like I did eight years ago because all of these were so different I would have needed even more options of trim that I have. But I don't think they are missing a thing without it.
When I stacked these up, I thought it was interesting how they look like little sacks of feed and some of the scraps I used are indeed from feed sacks. :)
These will also be for sale this year at Old Cottonwood.

Talk about eye candy! They're really eye catchers, so bright and colorful. They look like miniature quilts to carry in a pocket or purse. They're as much fun to look at as they were for you when deciding just what pieces to put together!
ReplyDeleteYou've been busy! The tissue covers will be a spot of brightness in someone's bag, and useful, too.
