That memory cover just melts my heart! What a lovely thing to do and to now have. You will always think of those who preceded you when you see it. It's a treasure!
Make sure to write down just what you've written here and perhaps fasten it to the inside of the cover, so no one in the future will forget!

You created a masterpiece! It is a wonderful sampler of work and artifacts. I am happy that you have your grandmother's button box. I asked for my grandmother's button box and my grandfather wouldn't let me have it. It was put in an auction after he passed and I lived far away. So you are fortunate. I really tried to see stitches that attached the tatting...But couldn't. You handstitching skills are wonderful! I have some tatting and now the brain is mulling options. Thank you!
