First Aid Bag... Sew What?!!

My brother-in-law is going on a cross-country adventure in a couple of weeks--he will be visiting every state before he crosses back in to California (we may never see him again!... at the very least, it will be quite a while if he follows through with his grand plan). When I saw this past week's Sew What Challenge, I knew immediately that I needed to make a bag for him to take on his journey. If I were going on a journey like this, alone, in my car, you can bet I would have a first aid kit of oils with me.

So, I made him a First Aid bag, with a piece of elastic inside to snugly hold a few essential oils:
Peppermint for tummy troubles...
Purification for insect bites and battles...
Panaway for muscle relief after driving for hours...
Lavender for just about everything else.
