Out to supper tonight - just thought I would make the other ladies going a little present. I have made them with denim and lined them in gingham to match the stitching. Just need to cut of a few stray 'whiskers'. Sarah.

Very pretty. Here we only have top-opening packets, Have to think of a way to make those in the hoop.

You could add the pkt & then the new owner could take them out of the pkt & out them back in it's cover!
by airyfairy 27 Jan 2013
Thank you Martine - our packets also open from the top but I have taken then out to put in the holder.

I do the same thing - give with them closed and then they take them out and put in the holder.

Like I had forecasted: You are making tissue holders for the next time. What a pity that we have now more use for them here in Europe and some parts of the US than at South Africa :o)

I for one get through masses of tissues. Always have to have tissues in my handbag.

Many, many years ago I did one of these in counted cross stitch for my aunt. She cried and cried. People do like to see their name on something they own. Good job.

I agree with you Elizabeth. I think we all like to see our names on something - makes it very special.

You sure are on great roll. These are beautiful. I carry one all time. So I bought pack tissues then saw how they fold hit my big box made a stack and put them in as needed. I love them and the zipper ones are great too.

Thank you. I will try the zip ones as I would like to see how a zip works in the hoop.
