Quilting Warm-up with Scrap Fabric

I like to start the year by making small projects using scrap fabric from the previous year. I made a list the other day of what I "plan" to do this year. I have an immediate need for a new case for my cards. The old one I made still works, but it's bursting at the seams because of all the establishment cards I collected over the past two years. 

I looked through my scrap fabric and realized I don't really have a lot that can match each other. I had very small ones from a quilted tote bag I made for a friend. Since it's just a small case, I managed to finish it last night. There were errors and the case was still not enough to carry all my cards, so I made a new one again this afternoon. 




I skipped the batting and binding for this one. I watched a couple of videos where they skipped both, so I thought I'd make it that way. I used scrap for the whole piece. I also used Velcro instead of snap-on buttons since they don't stay closed. Velcro will prevent the cards from spilling all over my bag. 


Here's the turn out:

First attempt

Second attempt

I'll add how I made it when I finish editing the video :)
