Sugar Cookie Sack
Out of the entire Zakka Style book this was the project I was MOST looking forward to making. It is sooooo sweet and being a lover of felt decorations I was so excited that it was on the 'to do' list this month.
Now that I can embroider, I found the label easy to do with stem, straight and back stitch. I was able to do about 3/4 of it whilst ill in bed for 5 days. My Version I reversed the fabrics and had a plain label because I had the sweetest vintage sheet fat quarter all picked out for it.
My cookies had icing and buttons.
I sewed the ribbon onto the back of the sack after I had decorated it with one of the only fancy stitches on my Janome 2101DC.
