Handmade tea bag tea cosy

Well, my sewing machine is still out - and the reason I haven't posted anything lately. I've been fiddling with some new designs and I have been getting a little frustrated to say the least. The designs aren't complicated, it just takes me a while to work out the best way to sew things up in order to get the best result. Anyway, here is the first! A tea cosy in the shape of a tea bag. Slightly unusual but remains within the 'tea' theme. The outer is made from plain voile and the tea leaves from brown felt. The tea cosy is insulated with thick 200g wadding and lined with white polycotton. I quilted the folded panels to make folding easier. I then added a swing tag - this can be personalised to suit you. Hopefully this evening I will get another new tea cosy finished and will post the results tomorrow! The tea bag tea cosy is available in my Etsy shop now!
