“A stitch of calm, a thread of scent”
Teabag Lavender Sachet – Still Room Project
In the old still rooms of country homes, herbs and flowers were gathered to soothe and preserve. This month, we steep ourselves in lavender and cloth — crafting a tiny sachet shaped like a teabag, complete with a dangling tag to carry a whispered thought.
🪡 Make Your Sachet:
Everything you need — from cloth and twine to lavender and labels — has been tucked inside your curated box. No need to gather, just begin.

Print at 100% on A4 paper.Cut two matching pieces of fabric using the template.
Layer them with right sides facing out — no turning inside out required.
Sew around three sides, following the dashed red stitch line in the template. Use a straight stitch, and pink the edges if you like that classic zigzag teabag look.
Fill with lavender, using about a teaspoon.
Fold the top edge inward and stitch across, inserting one end of your twine into the seam.
Attach a paper tag to the other end of the string.
Make the Tag:
Use a 2 cm square of vintage paper (ledger, music score, dictionary page) and fold it in half.
Glue the twine in between the fold, and add a quote or word to the tag.
✍️ You can print and cut from the sheet below or write your own by hand.
What to Do With It:

Slip one into a gift box or letter
Use it in a seasonal altar or dressing table
Or simply make it for the joy of making
