Scrappy woven & embroidered pouch with vintage button

I made this pouch for @jemimah for the IYP swap. The button is from my vintage button hoard. I borrowed her photos because I always take terrible last minute pictures before I send.

Thank you for the kind feedback @Magpie and @endymion. I was starting to think that some of my more recent pieces were bordering on overworked with stitching that is too dense. You two make me think that I am still OK and the dense stitching still creates an interesting look.
