Here’s my first go at making something out of tea bags …
I’m really not at all sure what to call it, nor do I have any sense of what to do with it …
except maybe just leave it where the light can shine through …
And don’t you just love Deb Lacativa’s Dirty Threads?
such beautiful stitching, Deb's wild threads are perfect for this piece!

lovely, I like the sun shining through the tea bags, I cannot believe you were able to stitch them together- the only thing I have done with tea bags is paint on them

The light through the tea bags gives a \”plaid effect.\” Fascinating. Yes, Deb's magic threads are just that: magic. Hoping to acquire more this year.
