Time for Tea

I'm a little Tea Pot, short and stout.(And I'm a little Tea Cup)
Here is my Handle, Here is my Spout.
When I get all steamed up, hear me shout:
"Just tip me over and pour me out!"

I have been working on a new pattern set this week (well, part of it is new, part of it is a re-worked version of some designs I did several years ago.) In addition to this "Tea Pot and Cup Wall Art" design, there will also be Tea Pot and Tea Cup Potpourri holders. I wanted to work on something besides doilies for a change, but now I can't wait to get this set done so I can get back to work on the "Angel of Love" doily!

Thank you, Tina! I will post pictures of the potpouri holders as soon as I get them finished. The spout for the Tea Pot is giving me fits; I have made 5 so far!

Your teapot and cup are just awesome! I have a collection of teapots that numbers over 200! I'll be looking for this pattern when you're done.

Oi, Beautiful...

Ann said...

Oh my goodness, Barbara, where do you keep them all? I love tea pots, too!
Thank you, Crochethuahua! I saw a real tea pot and cup displayed like this years ago in an antique store, so I guess I "borrowed" the idea!
Thank you, Ana Luisa!
It has been a lot of fun to work on, Gloria. The details are what I love the most, but I always worry I will add too many!
Thank you, Sidney!

Thank you, Unique2wh0! I am all about pretty these days.

I am probably going to hang mine in my studio, Anne. The colors don't go with my kitchen:{ But in my studio, I like to use lots of bright and cheerful colors.

Thank you, Sue! I wanted to use very cheerful colors on this set; I really love the way the aqua goes with the pinks.

The thing I love most about blogging is getting to meet such lovely people from all over the world, Sandra. I am so glad you found my little blog, and I hope you will visit often!
