This recipe was extracted from The hearthstone; or, Life at home (1883) by Laura C. Holloway, page 153. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.
Sachets for bureau drawers and boxes can be made of pieces of silk merino or muslin. Take a piece of silk eight inches long and two and one-half inches wide. Double and sew sides together; fill with aromatic herbs, if you have any ; if not, your druggist will fill for a trifle. Fill to within an inch and one-half of the top ; then sew across, draw up and fasten. Tie a ribbon around with bow. Sew lace or fringe all around sachet
Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
