Hi everyone,
Last year I started a group on flickr called 2010 quilt along (tea/coffee related). It is a private group of about 33 members. I had each member make atleast a block a month that related to tea or coffee in someway and at the end of the year we would have a finished quilt. It has been tons of fun watching everyones quilt develop and come to completion. Here is mine.
I used several of the teapot designs from Kay Mackenzie book " teapots 2 applique" and several are my own designs. I will try to post some of my own designs as close up pictures.
It is a king size quilt.
My design represents my love of dachshunds and tea.
