The one they showed on the picture had a big button and the case was made with a plaid and floral pattern I think. I need to find the tut again, can anyone help me.

Not for this gal. I'm all about easy----------the super simple tissue cover is beautiful and needs only two pieces and goes together almost without any thought or planning------------and next to no measuring.

I think this is the one you are looking for. I saved the web site under my "Future Project List"

I've made both the 'super-easy' and the folded cases and they're both fun! Both are quick, pretty and friendly!

I can't find my good scissors and I'm out of rotary blades, so it took me 15 minutes to cut the 5 pieces for the button case (didn't do the buttton), press the 4 top pieces, sew them together and fold out right. (Plus some dog ear scratching!)-------------that's for my first one. Which I made to show neighbor the pattern. (up to 272 holders to date, keeping notes)

I've still got a few pieces of trouser legs from shopping bags, and I'm going to use some of that for the backs of the holders. I cut maybe 20 backs just a bit ago. So, now I'll be doing a few more.

I've got to quit clicking on links on here.
