Marching Band Cookies

Back to school in Texas also means the start of a sacred event: Friday Night Lights and College Football Saturday! Now to a lot of people that might just conjure up images of football players and the game, but I can't be the only one that looks forward to the half-time performances by the marching bands!

In fact, I know I'm not! Lindsey's husband is a marching band director and she always gets him something special to kick-off the start of a new season.  How sweet is that?  I initially came up with football ideas, but then decided that I wanted to do something to really highlight the marching band, and not just focus on the football aspect.  Lindsey and I discussed it and decided that marching band hats and music notes would be perfect!

I used "brush embroidery" on the feather of the hats to really give it texture and look more realistic.

Thank you for ordering, Lindsey!  It was so fun to create these cookies for you and your husband!
