I made this little bag today on my large hoop - it came from The Country Needle. I expected it to be so much bigger than it turned out to be. It started out to be 6x10 and it is about 6x4 once I stitched it up the back and made the bag ot of the square of lace. But now that it finished it and taken this picture I really think it is cute.

Thank you Letvia, I thought it would be bigger, but it is what it is. A flower for you, as well.

Well, I am not sure that it was worth the worry, as Shirlene said, sometimes we worry about our machne and we worry about the project. But this one turned out in the end, after all that I did and didn't do. HaHa.

jrob, thank you, everything turned out ok in the end. I appreciate the thoughts, but I am not sure that I would like to go through that experience again any time soon. HaHa. Now Shirlene, you cut this out. OK?

Clawton, it had 52,542 stitches, but I had some trouble with my thread on the first layer. So I must have uesed more thread than most, not counted in this count, of coarse. I was happy with it last night, but really like it today. HaHa!

46645Oh Loretta, what a cute sachet bag. Just my color if that is peach. Hehehe! I love the lace under it as well. Tell me - did this have a built in drawstring or did you just wrap that ribbon arund it? Very good work. *4U

Thank you, it is Peach, just as you thought. This drawstring is a ribbon, but there are little button-like holes that are part of the design, that stitched out while in the hoop. A flower for you, as well.
