Time for Tea Set

It has taken me a lot longer to get the Time for Tea set ready for testing (about 2 weeks longer!) but I think I am almost there. I have spent this week working on the patterns and took some photos today. I think it is turning out really cute. Here is the set all together: It includes the Tea Pot and Tea Cup Wall Art, a Tea Cup Sachet and a Tea Pot Potpourri Bowl. This is the gift pattern that will come with purchase of the set. It was so much fun to make!
I am really loving these colors right now. They are Aqua, Orchid Pink and French Rose from Aunt Lydia. I want to use the Aqua with everything; a sunny yellow, a soft violet, more of the pinks and especially RED! I would love to do a whole set of doilies, using Aqua as the element that ties them all together. I think it would be a very cheerful and bright set!
Anyway, one more read through, and I am sending the Tea Set out for testing.
I have also been working on the Angel of Love doily, and will try to post a sneak peek picture sometime this weekend.

    I think the colors really make the set, Molly. But it would be fun to see what it would look like in different colors!

    Thank you, Glor. It was a lot of fun to make!

    This is luscious! I will have to try this pattern. Love the colors although I stick with the white more than any color.

    For many years I only crocheted with white or ecru thread, Charlotte. But in the last few years, I can't seem to get enough color in my designs!

    I think you have succeeded in making the patterns 3D.With the color combination they look almost a part of Alice's wonderland.

    I love the colors. I would never think to put the aqua in with those colors. I can't wait to see more. I usually stick with the white and ecru too. Now I think I will try more color combos.
