    Who's ready to come and visit for Tea..... :-) Thought I would share my new table topper with you....

    The fabrics for this was given to me a couple of years ago by a special friend.....from CLOTHWORKS - "LAND OF TEA"....I had the piecing done - did that last Summer...but needed to get the binding done...

    I did a pieced binding with all of the pieces left from the top...it is handquited with a running stitch around the motifs and around the blocks in general..it was a lot of fun to do..

    It measures about 40" x 45" and will be a table topper....I see this being a fun table cloth for a brunch on the patio...

    I have some pieces of the teapots and cups left which I am turning into hotplate holders....great for serving brunch....

    And the offer still stands - come for tea :-)

    Very Cute!

    Tea and cookies would be wonderful with this on the table.

    Thanks everyone - it was a blast - I think cookies and tea would be what this calls for as well..
    That backing fabric that everyone likes is a fabric that I had for such a long time and didn't know what to do with it - I had a whole bolt of that - well, I used it on a full size quilt a while back - and it was perfect for that - then I used the balance on this one - the colors just seems to fit right in...I love finding thing in my stash to complete projects...... :-)
