Cookie Cutter Hostess Gift

Posted on October 26, 2013 by Pillows A-La-Mode

Do you need a hostess gift idea? Does your hostess love to bake?

1. Stitch a simple drawstring bag.

2. Embroider the word “Cookies” on one side.

3. Fill it with fun or seasonal cookie cutters.

Don’t be surprised if you hear some oohs and aahs! ♥

  Thank you! I used that particular fabric because it was a remnant from a tablecloth I’d made for our hosts earlier this year. 🙂

    I lost all of my cookie cutters somehow years ago and I so desperately need to replace all of them.

I wouldn’t limit myself to hostess gifts–if you stick a couple of recipes in there, it would also be a great present for young folks setting up house! Love that you think up all these great ideas!

  Thank you, Judy! I think I love to embroider almost more than anything. It’s so relaxing. My grandmother taught me when I was around 10 or so and needed to stay with her for a few days. She was SO patient! 🙂
