Lucy Locket lost her pocket....

I have finally finished my 18th century pocket!  I would have finished it much, much sooner if I had just been more consistent on working on it.  I have that horrid habit of getting a project mostly done, then not finishing it for a couple months.  But I finally made myself do the last few inches of embroidery, and then bind the pieces together.  Here's the finished pocket!

Photo with needle-case and pin ball.  Sarah made the pin ball - it reads on one side "SW to AT" and on the other "Faithful Friends Forever Be."  Isn't it sweet?


My two favorite embroidered flowers.  They turned out especially well in my opinion.

Now I can carry my chapstick with me to the Ball in style!  Not that anyone else is going to see my pocket under my petticoats, but at least *I* will know how awesome it is.  LOL.
