The little shirt pattern was from the magazine Quilts and More Magazine a while back. Segasal did the original post under "cute little shirts" I think. The first shirt took about an hour to make but I can do them in about 15 minutes now. A do the tissue holders as a way to get people to look at my stuff hoping they will buy other things too. Craft Shows have been slow here.

I would feel like I was ripping someone off to charge $4-5 for a tissue cover.

I've used this one too! Really like it...it takes me longer to pick out the fabric than it does to make them.

I find this so interesting, because I have never in all my life ever bought those little packs of tissues. I just grab a stack and stick them in the corner of my purse, or in my pocket. So I question who actually buys them? I have thought of making some too, but I don't know anyone around here that would even use one.

I used to do the same but tissues often got messy in purse. Used this tute to make covers and was amazed as how easy they were - and nice looking. Made them as a little Valentine's gift for teachers in my granddaughter's daycare. They were a big hit!

I may have to try making some then. Thanks.

I have made some of these but am having trouble finding tissues that open from the front and not the top, which brand do you use. Thanks
