Sewing pattern: Upcycled shirt pocket sachets

Sarah from Sadie Seasongoods shows that sachets aren’t just a gift to give at Mother’s Day. They can also make great Father’s Day gifts when they’re made from upcycled men’s shirt pockets. Brilliant! I’m loving this because I’ve got a stack of shirt pockets left over from previous upcycles, and I haven’t known quite what to do with them. Now I know I can turn them all into sachets – though I might skip the Father’s Day gifts and just keep them for myself.
