Alistair has made many friends at his day-home. Several of them are turning 5 this week, so I wanted to do a little something special. Since my friend who runs the day-home is an amazing baker, I can't measure up on that front. Jennifer is always so thoughtful sending baking treats home with the kids on special days so I wanted to return the kindness.
I sew better than I bake, so I whipped up some tissue holders. With my 'icing' I added their names on it with home-made labels. I sewed up a couple fat-quarters from Periwinkle Quilting and busted a few stash pieces. My sewing pantry is far from empty, but its looking less like a hoarder!
To make these tissue holders, I cut a piece 6" x 16" then sew it into loop. If the scrap wasn't big enough, then I cut 6" x 8.5" and stitched two seams to form the loop. Then fold into tissue holder, overlapping edges and stitch ends. Turn right-side out. Add your tissues.
