I hope you're sitting down. I.embroidered.
I've avoided it so many times during the Zakka sew-along, and really couldn't see my way out of it this week.
And believe it or not, I found embroidery needles in my sewing kit and look! Even a hoop!
I decided to generalize, and rather than make a 'cookie' bag, I opted for 'treats'.
Jen basically gave permission, as she came up with several unique twists with her little sacks.
The body of the bag is white Essex linen, with a teal Marmalade stripe for the label, and the ittsiest bit of Heirloom for the trim.
This pattern by
nanaCompany is definitely sweet and satisfying.
Linking up with LRstitched and TNT.
Very sweet indeed! See, you can embroider!
