Hmm...either middle or top right.

Francie's pie dough.
Ratio : 1 stick butter to 1 cup flour.
Butter must be soft but not melted. Unsalted butter is a must.
rub butter into flour
do not over mix.
do not ty to make it stick together.
just rub it lightly together with happines, pleasure or joy.

When it is all grainy and like litle pieces of peas you are ready for the next step.

sprinkle in salt. 1/8 -1/4 tsp /cup of flour

take a half a cup very cold water.
NO don't pour it all in.
Put a little in and lightly mix with your fingers do not try to make it stick into a ball. It will naturally start to do that. Just mix it lightly. Add more water until it all easily comes together into one big thing of dough.
It should be soft and stretchy and ready for rolling out.

roll out your pie dough and sing a song
