A White Sachet

When making plans to meet with my sisters over Thanksgiving weekend, they asked me to bring the lavender sachets I had on hand because they were interested in giving them as gifts.  I took all I had and they bought every one of them and asked for more!  This is the first one I've made.




It is all white with a lace corner from a vintage hankie, some pearl beads, decorative machine stitching, embroidery stitches and french knots, and a yo-yo flower with a vintage mother of pearl button for the center.

One down, two to go...
