The bridal shower invite asked us to be creative and bring a gift that fit in the enclosed envelope!  My first response was to make a mini dish mat in the bride’s favorite colors.  I used 5 inch squares and terry cloth, constructed in the same manner as the Linda’s Dish Mat Tutorial Revisited.

 

 

 

 

 

With some creative folding it fit perfectly into the supplied envelope,  along with a recipe card and a little money!

 

 

 

 

I knew she was also getting a sewing machine from her mom, so I added some fabric scraps to the envelope wrapping, too!

I hope she likes it!

Thanks for looking.  🙂 Linda
