In this video tutorial I teach you how to make a business card holder out of fabric. These can also be used as a credit card and/or gift card holder. They take a minimal amount of fabric to make and whip up quickly and easily. They would make a great gift anytime of the year but would be the perfect little stocking stuffer gift, too!

LOVE your tutorial. You got to the point w/o a bunch of bla bla like most videos.
Great job instructing us what will be the wrong action when flipping it right side out. How very considerate of you.
I made a cross shoulder zipper/pocket purse for hands free when shopping/walking. I'm using my card holder for my little metal credit card holder and some folded money on the other side....made it match the purse as well as made a matching key fob. I also wanted the pocket to have more thickness so I lined it with the lining used in the purse. Made the lining longer and when folded in half it made a cute 1/2" border. So my purse is navy with the maroon trim as well as the card holder....key fob is maroon. Cute and useful set! Great tutorial as usual! Love watching you and your ideas!!!
This video was so helpful! I started listening to your voice and realized your the same person who taught me how to bake bread. You've taught me so much, thanks a lot! :)
I have been following you for years. I love your projects,videos and teaching methods. I can't figure out how I missed this great little tutorial. Stocking stuffers!!!!
Thank you Vanessa. I love your videos and have been peeking in on you for a few years now, but never took time to comment and let you know how much I enjoy them.
When I do items that require hand sewing on a button that could potentially interfere with something underneath, (the pocket for cards), I place a small piece of card stock or card board in the pocket. That way the needle does not go through to the pocket. You can actually hear when the needle 'scrapes' the card board.
I made a bunch of these, but I had to use my machine to sew all the buttons on first, before assembly. It worked out nice. I made a template for that. I have a broken thumb, so hand sewing I can't do right now. Thank you for your wonderful, easy to understand videos.
Thank you, Vanessa. This is exactly what I was looking for, and your instructions are very easy to understand. I am a beginner at sewing, and looking for projects within my reach, and my son just made new business cards and needs a holder. You have been a big help!
made it under 30 minutes! thank you so much for this easy, complete video!
I love your videos. I’m going to teach this project with my quilt guild. Thanks so much for your videos. Be well.
I made 2 of these Saturday and am really pleased with the finish, thanks Vanessa want to make the makeup bag now.
I loved this tutorial. I actually made a wallet just upsized pattern and added credit card slots!
You're such a good teacher.
I love this project!! I will be making it!! I also love the fabric...love the pink polka dots!! THANKS Vanessa!
This is such a great quick project. I used this design of the loop and button to close up the nap mats I created for my grandsons. I had to figure that out on my own and it was tough. I would love a tutorial because I think these could be sold and lots of preschoolers would like a cozy mat with attached minky blanket.
Love, Love and Love this video. You explained everything so clear and great. Thanks
Vanessa, a wonderful tute as always! You have an amazing way of explaining things that makes it crystal clear, step by step, with tricks to avoid possible problems along the way. However, I found that the thin fusible interfacing was a little too thin for my liking, I'll just double it next time. And instead of turning under the pocket edge twice, i just cut the pockets at 5" x 5", folded them in half, topstitched with a pretty stitch across the fold and laid it in as you said. it gives the pocket a tad more body plus faces it. Thanks!
Great tips! Thanks for sharing. :)
ellen manson That sounds like a good idea. I'm newer to sewing, do you have pictures of what you changed?
No pux, but I think the explanation is clear. Another thing I've changed is the closure. Instead of the loop and button I use the velcro dots. Much easier and neater.

vanessa, you know how the missouri quilt shop tutorials have a catchy tune when you open them up? i think you should consider doing something like that for your website. it would catch people's attention and whet their appetite for what is to follow. your website is wonderful and always evolving and getting better, so it's just a thought.
I loooooove this tutorial. I have been looking all over and I think this is the best one I've come across!!!
You are young, beautiful n talented, smart. I love to see your tutorial n listen to your fast talking.....😃
I'll show your video to my daughter.
Regards from Indonesia
Your knowledge is priceless Vanessa, thank you
This is great just made it. I did not have thin backing but I had a lot of extra scrap fabric so I just used another of the 5x6 of the fabric turned out great I thought.
These are so cute! I'd love to use them as wallets as well. lol
Brilliant tutorial! I'm definitely going to make a few of these! Perfect for bits of fabric left over from other projects! Thank you for sharing! 😊
Love this, I think I'll use batting and quilt it!
Nice tutorial. The others are all too many compartments and too. Simple is best. Thanks
Love this quick & easy scrap buster! 😊
Great video! Clear, concise instruction. A real cute project.
AW - SOME tutorial!!! Just took the basic pattern to make a badge holder! I love it. You're great :D

Thank you for the tutorial these will make great gifts .
Nice and clear instructions.
Changing the subject. I just saw a ironing board mitt on sewing with Nancy. It was
a mitt for your hand with a flat piece on the back of a hand mitt. You iron your item while draping it over your hand. Looks interesting. Could do tut on how to make something like that? You always have such interesting ideas!
Love this! Going to make one now for my bus and train pass :D

Thank you! Great tutorial!
I love it very much!! Thank You!!
very nice crafty G.😁
Easy,,and useful good tutorial..
If you use it for credit cards, you should use thermal shield batting because it it has a layer of foil to prevent card readers from getting your card information. That happened to me and they emptied my bank account., I had to close the account and open a new one at my bank.
LOVE IT!! Thank YOU!!
I like this idea! The colors are pretty. Pat Harper
Have you ever sewed a slotted storage for computer clips? They are starting to be a jumble in the container where I have them stored.
Nice --- Thank you !
All i need now is a zipper and i make it soon :)
Beautiful! Is that an arm knit scarf?
If i want more layer for the pocket..so i need to add more pocket right?
Hi can you use heavy weight interfacing instead
I'd like to make this for a friend starting her own business, but she has square cards that are 2.56"x2.56" - what sized fabric should I cut?
Hi Gemini I was watching this video and I saw your business cards and caught my attention. Who or where did you do it.
thanks for the info
Hi! I designed them myself and ordered from www.gotprint.com. Hope that helps!
TheCraftyGemini wow thank you very much for the info.
Could this be done with blue Jean material?
Yes you can do it with blue jean material. Just get an interfacing that is not too thick or you can have it without the interfacing since the jeans are pretty stiff. I hope this helps you!
Can you just sew in velcro instead of the loop?
I love the little iron. May I ask what brand and model so I can get one? Thanks!
Hi. This is the little iron I use: amzn.to/1zdd0m3
Hi 👋
going to do this by hand cuz my machine is busted.
