Cookie mixes in a bag, cookie mixes or hot chocolate or flavored coffee mixes with a mug rug, Christmas bag full of cookies, or caramel corn, cup with mug rug made to match design of cup (check thrift stores for cups).

How do you measure the 2" corner triangle?...
2" up each side from the corner point and draw a line between them?
Or do I draw a line 2" from the corner straight outward into the body of the corner and, if so,
how do I make sure the sides then are equidistant from the corner point?

I like the mug rug idea for work gifts. Could be made with Christmas fabrics or girly/guy fabrics.

I just posted some pictures of Mug Rugs and cups that I did. The cups had decorations added using my Silhouette Cameo. Take a look!

Saw this under "Links/Resources for a Cookie-Plate-Mat. It would be a nice gift with a plate of cookies on it.

they seem to be big hits so I'm curious what you were selling them for? Our Project Linus group will be in an alternative craft show this weekend and will have them for sale ($5 each or 4 / $15). Since these are all donated items, don't want to over-price them so the group can bring in some much-needed money.
