Recently my grandchildren's Grandpa passed away. Using some of his bandana handkerchiefs I made these coin purses so they can carry a little bit of Grandpa with them. Our family name is Valentine so I thought the heart shape is very appropriate to remember him with.

Thank you to all for the heartwarming comments and sentiments of sympathy. It is much appreciated. After my three daughters saw the coin purses I had to make three more, and I used up every available scrap there was. Hugs to all, Teresa

A great idea. My husband's uncle's name was Valentine, they called him Bud. Don't know whether it was a family thing.

LOVE IS ALL AROUND! I really love you(r) VALENTINES! What a wonderful idea to give your grandchildren a memory of their beloved grandpa. And because you did all the coin purses with love they also do now carry a piece of love by their grandma. You really are a queen of hearts to them! Thanks for sharing - Maria

Such a lovely tribute to their Grandpa. They will certainly enjoy carrying these coin purses, and thinking if him each time they pull the zippers. Nicely done.
