LAVENDER SACHETS I purchased a bunch of very inexpensive clear boxes on ebay and this is one of the projects I decided to fill them with. I serge a seam in some nylon fabric to make a tube. I put my chosen amount of lavender in. Serge it closed. I then sew my sachet in the hoop....like a tissue holder. This way, I can embroider lovely designs. I remove from the hoop, invert, and add the nylon tube of lavender. I make two per box for lovely gifts that will keep their scent because they are contained in these boxes.

What a wonderful picture presentation! I can see perfectly what you have done on these. They are lovely and I know they will be well received. I have lavender growing in my garden. Smells heavenly.

Thank you. I like to keep a picture of what I do to help remind me of how it was done. That way, if I ever repeat a project, I've kept a copy of what I did. And a picture is self evident...
