Lyndel Grace Millington Brooks
Born on a warm spring day, March 20, 1887, in the rustic charm of Hood, Texas, Lyndel Grace Millington—affectionately known as Linnie—was a woman whose creativity knew no bounds. The daughter of Ira and Susan Millington, Linnie grew up in a world where her vibrant spirit and artistic talent shone brightly.
At the age of 18, Linnie married her sweetheart, Lawrence Alexander Brooks, on May 26, 1905, in the quaint town of Tolar, Texas. Together, they built a life filled with love, raising two children and nurturing a legacy that would inspire generations. Linnie's hands, always busy with creation, wove beauty into everything she touched, from her intricate artwork to the warmth she shared with her family.
"Linnie's art was her heart on display, a gift to all who knew her." — Family Memory
As my great-grandmother, Linnie's legacy lives on through the Lyndel Bag at Sweet Bella Bags. Each stitch and detail in this bag reflects her passion for craftsmanship and her ability to turn the ordinary into extraordinary. Linnie passed away on October 5, 1960, in Tolar, Texas, at the age of 73, but her spirit continues to inspire every piece we create.
Those who knew her called her Linnie—a name that carried love, laughter, and a touch of Texas charm. At Sweet Bella Bags, we honor her memory with every Lyndel Bag, crafted to embody the same artistry and heart she poured into her life.
