Santa’s Cookie Bucket Put Any Gift inside

Sweet Quilted Fabric Baskets For Grown-Ups Too

I just love the idea of these sweet Cookie Buckets. When the handles are sewn on with just the buttons, the handles easily rotate down to load in cookies, as well as to easily get the Christmas cookies out!

 

Patterned with a Christmas theme in mind, these baskets can be made for gift giving any time of year and for any occasion, and not just for kids. The perfect gift wrap, the drawstring hides the surprise inside. If you love buttons, its’ the perfect project to put them on display.

The basket can be stitched without the top closure to make the perfect display of home baked goodies on the table, when friends and family come around. Make it with the drawstring cover, choosing different fabrics for the basket, and use it to pack in snacks for a summer picnic.

The bags with or without the closure make quaint sewing baskets, and storage for buttons and embellishment, a pretty display on the shelf in the sewing room. The gift basket, filled with something special for the recipient, will be treasured for a long time after.

The Santa’s Cookie Bucket, designed Kelly Meuller from The Wooden Bear, is a finished size of approximately 6″ high x 6″ wide, and is available as a free pattern, for a Hugs and Holly Christmas!
