Special Thanks to Doris for sharing this quick simple project! What a great way to use up our left over fabric!

This tissue cover pattern came in handy for me many times for a quickie gift. It was good for a teacher gift, for the card club girls and my co-workers.

Cut fabric 8x5 1/2 ". Press each short edge 1/2" to wrong side. Topstitch across each short edge 1/4" from fold. With right sides facing and matching raw edges, fold short edges of fabric over to meet in center. Use 1/4" seam allowance to sew along raw edges on each end of cover. Turn and poke out corners. Insert tissue pack in cover. These are great for tuck ins and can be made from different fabrics. Hope your readers can use this in this busy season.
