One Night Project

I needed to take a break from the big quilt, so I did a one night recycling project with this tin leftover from Christmas:

I often give homemade cookies to people in tins I recycle, so I decided to make it into a cookie gift box.

Since I liked the snowflake design on the sides of the tin I just needed to cover the top. For that I got some scrap muslin, quilting fabric and batting.

I kept the patchwork and the embroidery simple since I wanted to get it done in a night.

To attach the little quilt top I used hot glue -- not something you want to do if you're going to wash the item, by the way.

Finished box. Much cuter.
