Tissue Cozy Tutorial

Here is a tutorial on how to make a little tissue pack cozy to keep in your purse. Not like it's difficult to make, but sometimes it's nice to see step-by-step how someone else did it. They make cute gifts that are really quick to sew!

Cut 3 pieces of fabric, each 4"x6".


Take 2 of the pieces and iron them so that they are 2"x6" and put the other (flat) piece of fabric pretty side up, then center the pressed pieces on top so that the folded edge is towards the middle. You want all the raw edges to be together. It's no fun to rip out stitches if you have a senior moment and stitch it incorrectly... ask me how I know. I used about a 1/2" stitch. It doesn't have to be exactly perfect.


After stitching, clip the corners so that it turns nicely, then turn right side out and put the kleenex pack inside.



Happy Stitching!!!
