By now you figured I have a thing for tea cozies. There is never an end to ideas and fabric. This happy Mary Engelbreit fabric did a nice job on this one. It has a pocket on both front and back. Then with the scraps I made a pad for it to sit on. I did some outline quilting on the pad around the flower. Yes, that's a yo-yo with a button center on top.
This is the other side. Side the pockets with a tea bag and wooden honey dipper?
So So cute! I absolutely love ME!!! ANd your tea set is to die for!!
ReplyDeleteI like tea cosy. I drink lots of tea. But I don't have a tea cosy. Maybe it's time I make one. Your version with the pockets is very interesting. Did you make a tutorial for it? I also like your cupcake quilt. That cupcake pattern would look nice on a tea cosy! Cupcakes and tea are so delicious together...
ReplyDeleteLove the mug rug. I make them but hadn't thought about making the center and then bordering it! I like that style! I'm joining you from FreeMotion by the River Linky!

The pad is my favorite! Bright and delicate in the same time.The appliqued flower is sooo lovely!
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute and the pad is a neat addition! This makes me want to start drinking tea! Thanks for sharing.

you won me over with Mary Englebreit. I just love her graphics! When other artists say, with that tone, "she's cute" I say, "YEAH! she is CUTE" I like cute and it makes me happy and it's cheerful like this cozy and mat. So cute. yea!
