Simple & sweet. And it’s great for kids valentine gifts too:)
stitched valentine treat bags are my fave
February 1, 2013In the February issue of Martha Stewart Living, I’m quoted saying I’m stitching hearts onto pouches for my valentines (pinch me). Here’s the proof that I wasn’t making it up:
To make your own you’ll need:
- muslin bags (I got these on Amazon)
- embroidery floss/twine/thread (whatever you have handy)
- needle
The instructions are pretty straight forward, thread your needle and start stitching. I printed the cross stitch pattern from here and followed this tutorial from Wild Olive for the hearts. They’re not perfect but it adds charm. At least that’s what I tell myself.
Fill mine with gold nuggets and gift certificates to TCBY please.
