Tissue box cover - patch work

I made 2 more tissue box cover last week.



Patch work 1

I used same fabrics as the bag that I made last month.


It was quiet fun to patch the fabrics together but
that made me confuse to measure the size.
T_T
After patch them somehow it seemed longer than I calculated
so I cut off mushroom fabric (the bottom one)... that I shouldn't cut!!!
I realised this at the end of process.
I was just about to add button and closer.


I added cotton tape to stretch top part but
it's still not long enough to cover the top.
I overlapped the tape and fabric too much.

It's always like this once I make a mistake,
it wants to be happen continuously.


Look at the big gap between cotton tapes.

Then when I pull the tissue from box
the gap didn't seem obvious.


I had a little crises the end but I completed.

patch work 2

Changed the pattern of patch.

I added cute little label to decorate this simple patches.



To make a flat corner, I used bias tape to finish the top part.
Size is perfect this time.

Added snap button to hold together.
