Another memory bag

[simonssez]

I took my sisters lead and tried to do a more intricate memory bag. A close friend is just celebrating her first wedding anniv. so I'm sending it as a gift. Nowhere near as nice as my sister's but I"m happy with the result. It's the first "no pattern; I made it up as I went" project I've ever done.

That's beautiful, and it's giving me ideas about adding tassels to a bridal bag I'm making for a friend!

They're just bags with a special meaning to hold small keepsakes, memories, etc.
