Spent an hour (maybe less) making these10 little beauties. I tried the glue method first but the all sew method worked better for me. And yes, you can use plain ol' felt instead of fusing fabric to fusible batting; this method gave me more colorful 'cookies'. Type in" fabric fortune cookies" and see what happens.
Here's a quick photo tutorial from me:
 |
Fuse as per package directions |
 |
Mark and sew inner third of seam about 1/4" from the edge |
 |
Fold cookies in half across the stitching |
 |
stitch 1/8" around two thirds of cookie |
 |
Done! |
Love it!!
ReplyDeleteso cute, but now what? DO you make up your own fortunes and pass them out on Halloween?
ReplyDeleteI am making these for teacher goodie bags. I am currently fortune hunting now. I have a few good ones, but nothing that really ''speaks to me'' yet.
ReplyDeleteIs it odd that I make goodie bags for high school teachers. why should k-6 have all the fun?
