A Quick Wedding Gift
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.
