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.

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.

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

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

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
