    This one was easily accessible, but not the best piece I have. I loaned the collection to the Brewster Historical Society about 30 years ago for an exhibit. They 'lost' it. Ten years later Jon was working on the locks at their new location and overheard them talking about not finding the owner of a box of beadwork pieces. He looked and it was mine so I got it back. I keep saying I'm going to create a display but I haven't so I ought to sell it all. I've heard these called wall pockets, but this one doesn't have a loop to hang it. There may have been a woven thread attached to the two top corners.
