I did - did you?

That's right - I put my scraps to work - did you?

Yes - I got out some of my scraps and decided to make some fun tea wallets from the Zakka book.  Here they are closed with ribbon and buttons:


And here they are opened up and with tea bags inside:


As many of you know, I LOVE sewing small projects and these were great fun to make in assembly-line style!  Picking the fabrics was the hardest and most lengthy part of making these as the pattern is quite easy to follow.  I even got to root through my button tin to find the perfect buttons to use.... oh how I LOVE buttons!!

Did you make anything using your scraps in January?  I will be linking up to Fairy Face Designs.

I love these, I'm just trying to force myself to drink tea. ... I get too many funny looks asking for milk and water! I've nearly completed a pin cushion!

Charming -- which Zakka book has the instructions for them -- they would look so much cuter in my handbag than the plastic "Ziploc" that currently houses my teabags!
