Vintage Linen Tissue Pouch

 

Hello !

I had a day off work last week 

so we went to a local Flea Market.

We had a good time walking around, enjoying

a beautiful sunny day.

I picked up a few things.

 I  found this pretty little embroidered doily.

It looked like the perfect size for a tissue pouch.

I made a paper pattern.

Then cut a piece of fusible lining.

I cut a piece of fabric

I ironed the lining  to the fabric back

and folded and ironed over the raw edge.

Pinned piece to the doily.

Top stitched to doily.

Folded up the sides.

Then stitched the sides.

Tucked inside the tissue pack.

The raw edges from  the doily show but I don't mind.

I used a small piece of Velcro for a closure.

This will help the Kleenex package stay together in my purse.

Thanks for the visit!
