Do you have a picture, not sure what that is.
This is the pattern I have.

I have this pattern at home. I have given them as gifts for nurses' or bosses day. What I can do is bring it to work tomorrow and scan it and send it as pdf (adope). I call them coffee cup pencil holders. PM with an email and subject so I will know what I have to look for. Thanks

Hancock Fabric and Hobby Lobby has 99cent pattern sales. You can do a google every Sunday afternoon to see what sales they are having that week. I do a lot of sewing and that how I buy my patterns. I use a stencil so that I do not wear out my patterns or buy more than one. You can buy 10 a day.

Here is another picture more close up. The back is attached with velcour. I have one at home that I can lay out and show you what it looks like. I use it for my sewing notions

More pencil holders (mug buckets)

Thank you so much for all the wonderful pics. That is exactly what I'm looking for. I looked at JoAnns for the pattern but naturally they were sold out. They are always sold out of the pattern I want. I bought a pattern in the wrong size for $1 once so they would have to get one in of the right size for me. They won't order you a pattern when it's on sale for $1. So aggravating when you can see it but can't get it. Thought for sure one would be free on the net. If you find that one you thought you saw, please let me know.
Thanks everyone.
