An easy shower gift: a pleasant teapot with a homemade tea cozy. The outside is a fun red and white heart print, the lining is white flannel with black polka dots. An embroidered label just to make sure the bride knows it isn't a hat . . .
I always find it funny when I run across someone who doesn't know what a tea cozy is. I use at least one of my collection of cozies everyday! (We drink a lot of tea here!) I usually just tell them it's like a sweater for the teapot. It's amazing how such a simple thing really is so helpful. I love to savor my pot of tea all morning so it's nice to keep it warm under a cozy. Yours is delightful, as always!
Can I just say....you are so cool. Everything you touch turns to gold. I love your blog, your sewing, your photos, your taste....etc. I want one of your dresses, but I have wide shoulders. I don't know if it would fit. *sniff*
Save me a strawberry wallet. I can't get one until September, which is my birthday month and strawberries are my absolute favorite thing in the whole wide world. Maybe I can twist my husband's arm.......hmmmmmm....
Good afternoon Miss Anna. I was wondering if you would be willing to share instructions on how to make this cozy. It is so darling. I, like everyone else, love your blog. It gives such clean and crisp inspiration. I have just (as of today) after much prayer and consideration, started my own blog. I pray that one day it to will be inspiration and encouragement for others. Thank you and may God continue to bless you and yours.
I am an evangelical Christian. I have two daughters whom I homeschool: Bella (15), and Daisy (8), and three older children: Giles (21), a college graduate, Felix (19), a college junior, and Clara (17), a college freshman. I'm 42 years old and happily married to my Dear Composer. We live in a 1920's school converted into a home, outside of town. And God is good.
Feel free to Pin my photos, but please link back to the page you found them on.
Photography
Photography is an important part of life at my house. Photos that appear here are taken by Giles, by the Composer, and by me. Giles is a real, paid photographer, and he uses a Sony Alpha. Most of the photography prior to September 2008 is his. Since then I have done most of the shooting and I use a Konica Minolta. Additionally, the Composer offers me nice shots on occasion, often from his little Canon point and shoot. I've given up trying to note who's done what. Thanks for your interest!

Your gift is lovely and I am sure it will be well-loved!
It's very pretty, and such a good idea for a gift.
Hahaha! I laughed out loud when I read the thing about the hat! Thanks Anna! It's so lovely!
I love the red-and-white print contrasted with the black-and-white polka dots. Only rickrack could have made this better... wait...
Just beautiful!
That is so adorable! I love the fabric.

I purchased a digital camera from CouponAlbum site and was surprised to have it on the next day with free shipping.
