a tape measure good enough to eat

[Serendipitycrafter]

I must have sweets on the brain. First it was my cupcake pincushion and now
it is an oreo cover for my measuring tape (from dollar store).

That is the cutest thing, and just the right shape! I've seen sheep and ladybug tape covers, but I like yours better!

Thank you!
I used the pattern from Elizabeth Doherty's very cool book Amigurumi but if you don't have that
then here is a link to a very similar pattern.

I glued the cookie part on the tape measure then made a small strip of sc to form the white filling and glued that on too.
It really is easy! Good luck
