Sewing - potholders and chocolate make a small Christmas gift

I volunteered to run a little Christmas activity at one of my groups at our December social meeting.  I will be printing a small Christmas crossword puzzle and we will be putting the ladies into groups of two and these little pyramids are the prizes for whoever gets it correct the fastest.  

They are constructed from Christmas potholders and house three little Lindor chocolates!!!  

I simply used a large needle and some cotton cording and made a stitch between two opposite corners and then brought up the other two corners and added another stitch.  I tightened the cording and arranged the corners nicely then tied a bow in the cording.  Two gifts in one and very little packaging!!
