Pouches are easy ti sew. If you have access to a sewing machine, they are cheap and quick. You can use cotton. That will let the smell out just fine. Basically, you just sew a rectangle(with pattern side facing each other), leaving the top open. Then, fold the open end over. Then, sew that end (leaving the end open.) Flip the material right side out (so no seams are showing). Now you have a pouch. For small pouches, I just carefully cut a slit on the inside of the open end. Using a safety pin attached to the end, thread a peice of ribbon, etc through the top. This will give you a basic pouch.
You can also create a sachet by making the rectangle, flipping the fabric so the pattern is out, stuffing with lavender, and then tucking the top edge in. Then, justmachine stitch over the top to close. This doesn't look as nice, but it is very quick.
HTH!
