Business card holder

Today we made a quick stop at IKEA. They had a new fabric collection, so off course I had to buy some :)
I just love the fabrics they have. It is a shame that most of their fabric is quite stiff, and not suitable to make dresses or skirts from. You can see some of the fabric I bought below.

A couple of weeks ago I found this fantastic blog: crafty cupboard. There are lots of great tutorials on this blog for DIY accessories and clothes. I liked this one in particular, on how to make your own business card holder, or credit card holder. The tutorial is very clear, with step by step pictures that show you how to do it.
So I started to make one for myself, with the new fabrics I bought. It starts with cutting the pieces from one or several types of fabric, with a piece of fiberfill as filling.

Then you just follow the description, sew it all together and here is the result:

It is quite simple to make; I finished this one in about half hour to an hour. The fiberfill I used is actually to thick, next time I will leave it out or use a thinner one. Enjoy making your own!
