Our cover fits a small package of tissue: 1" thick x 4.5" x 2.5"
Convenient envelope back opening allows easy insertion of tissue package.
These instructions use 1/4" seam allowance.
1. Place your two cover top pieces right sides together. Using a sewing ruler,
draw a 2" line, lenghwise, from each end. The line should be in the center of the fabric.
2. Stitch along lines marked. Be sure to back-stitch at each end of stitch lines.
3. Fold DOWN the upper half of the top layer, folding along the stitch lines.
4. Turn piece over. Fold UP the lower half of the top layer (fold up from bottom), folding along stitch lines. Press.
You now have a finished top, with a finished opening for tissue. Trim your finished piece to a size
of 4.25" x 6.25".

of the bottom piece with the lower edge of the top piece.
