Christmas Gift & Craft

TOBACCO POUCH

From "Peterson's Magazine" December 1858.

 


Tobacco Pouch"This would make a seasonable gift for a father, brother, or husband: and it is easily made. We give two engravings of it here, one showing the pouch closed, and the other showing it open: from which may be learned how to line it; and also what kind of clasp to select. In the front of the number, we give a pattern, full size, of the two sides of the pouch, showing the embroidery. These two sides, when doubled, form the pouch." [Peterson's Magazine, Dec. 1858, page 445]
