Slow stitching - card holders - upcycled CDs, scraps of cute fabric and buttons

I have made a few more playing card holders for a friend.  She really liked the hummingbird one I made for her last week and thought a few more would be good!!!  She requested more hummingbirds and I managed after some piecing to make one more.  She wanted ladybugs and sunflowers and I had enough scraps to make them up.  These take two 6.5" circles of fabric (they can be different), two 6.25" thin batting, two buttons and strong thread.  They are really a slow stitching so I will be making a few more this week.  You can see the others I made here.   

I am linking to Kathy's Quilts for Slow Sunday Stitching.  Always lots of inspiration there from the wonderful makers that come and share what they are slow stitching.

  1. Thanks for the info for the card holders. Do you close one side or just have the two covered CDs held together with the middle button? I could use these for my little grandchildren and sometimes for my arthritic hands.
