This year I have the opportunity to attend 2 blog conferences. Build Your Blog with the Six Sisters Stuff and Snap! In preparation to go I have made an adorable Business card holder. I found a few online and they were not the right size so I made my own.
Here is what you need.
Fat Eight- 9×22 fabric
Iron on pellon
Button
Hair Elastic
Start by cutting (2) 9×5 inch pieces.
Cut from the 9×5 3 inches off the top. Giving you (2) 6×5 rectangles and (2) 3 x 5 rectangles.
Fold over 1/8th inch along the longs side of the 3×5 inch pieces.
Stitch them into place.
Pin your small rectangles to each end of your large rectangles. Matching up corners.
Pin the second large rectangle on top of the first. Stitch around the outside edge leaving an opening along one short end.
Turn right sides out. Be sure to push corners out. Press.
Pin hair elastic to the center of the card holder. Top stitch around the outside edge of the holder. Be sure to back stitch over the elastic.
Mark where you want your button to go and hand stitch it into place.
All finished.
Here are a few more projects you can do with a fat eighth

SO adorable! I want to go to snap!
This is so fun! How nice to have your business cards all organized together! I love how it takes only a tiny bit of fabric.
Thanks for the tutorial.
