How to Make a Snippet Memory Roll

The session was all about making a simple stitched memory roll that reminds you of a person, place or event.  In the film below, we demonstrate how to make a small hanging from snippets of materials, embellished with trinkets, simple embroidery and haberdashery. The completed piece rolls up and ties with a ribbon, for sending as a gift or keeping for yourself as a reminder of the person or experience you had in mind when making it.
