Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Maggie I am so sorry, I did not do a wristlet tutorial. I won't have time to anytime soon. I am trying to remember where i got the pattern from so I can post a link for you.
I have lost track of everything in the move and am still needing to go through the closet and find it.

Is there a picture of the "wristlet" that everyone keeps talking about?? Is it a pincushion or what?

favorite poem..Outwitted by Edwin Markham...He drew a circle that shut us out..heretic, rebel a thing to flout.
But Love and I had the wit to win,
We drew a circle that took him in!
I made several of the teabag wallets for Christmas gifts and also made a matching purse tissue holder from this tutorial: Super super easy tissue holder
They make a nice set when the fabric matches. I included a set in my box to my Secret Santa partner here on the Board. I love both of these tutorials.
Remember the teakettle...it is always up to its neck in hot water, yet it still sings!

Great tutorial, thanks for taking the time and effort to post this. These teabag wallets make really nice little gifts or craft sale items. I've made a bunch of these over the past couple of years.

I made one of these as an add on goodie to send with my MR swap, turned out great!
Mamabird3, I saw the cutest little girl in the kiddy seat of a shopping cart at Walmart. She wore a pretty dress with matching wristlets on her arms. She acted as if she knew she looked pretty. What a resourceful mama! Hope you find the link to make these.
Ok ladies.. I found the pattern for the wristlet. I am not going to do a tutorial on it but it is from Lazy Girl Design. The pattern name is "Maggie". I believe it comes in two different sizes, but I enlarged the pattern to make a purse for my reading device. I also changed how I did the handle. Have fun with it!! I'll post a pic of the ones I made if I can find them.
Here is one of the wristlets I made from a left over quilt block. I used the cute embroidery stitches on my machine to finish it off and give it that extra touch. They make a great little extra special way to give a gift card. Like I said I made bigger ones with long handles for a purse too.
This is the bigger size..
I just finished the tea bag wallet the on Friday and I love it!! Thank you so much for posting the tutorial - once I sat down to work, it was really easy to follow.
