Cookie craft for my monster

Last week I finished a project I'd been planning for several months. It was quick and easy and lots of fun- just had to cut the templates out. I hate using scissors, probably because I can never find a pair when I need them. The husband would say that it's because I'm disorganized; my craft room would tend to corroborate that.

I searched for cookie templates online, but ended up making circles in word in two inch and three inch diameters for simplicity's sake. I cut out the felt, then scalloped the two inch circles to look as messy as my real-life cookie frosting abilities. 



The sprinkles were fun once I decided not to use french knots- a messy straight stitch looked so much nicer.  



And the finished product has been "eaten" like Cookie Monster many times since I gave it to Bitty!


I'm so excited that he likes them, and I hope he'll use them in his little kitchen. They suit my purposes, but for truly impressive cookies, check out these at "Whip it Good Cookies:"

Amazing! I almost couldn't eat them.
