Sweet Rose Sachet

[brendaKbrown]

Christmas is coming and I have been scrambling for ideas for stocking stuffers for my mom and my mother-in-law. I wanted a sachet, but didn't have time to go looking for one, so here's mine! Feel free to use the pattern, but PLEASE do not take credit for my work. And, there's no picutre, yep, because I'm blind. Merry Christmas and happy crocheting!
