Easter already

Well since I last wrote a post I have completed two more things, the tea cosy but I don't know if I have mentioned it on here, thought I had.  Anyway here is a picture of it 


Fitted teapot loverly, has an order for a pot holder from the same material now.  Glad it fitted cos it is a larger teapot than ours.    It is nice and thick so should keep the tea warm


I like it because my Mother-in-law has small tiles in her kitchen, and her window dressing is little squares too.  All fits together well.












The other things I have made are:








This is original Cath Kidson material, fat quarters tied up with ribbon so I made labels out of the ribbon to show its authenticity.  I had eight different pattern, then the problem was how to use them to show them to their advantage.  I decided on a large patchwork type, mixing the backgrounds to co-ordinate the pillows.  We had two star pieces so I used them for the backs.


Gem was very pleased with them, she was going to put them on her bed. 



 I bought this material before Christmas but was so busy I never got round to making this cushion,  it has a round cushion made from calico inside filled with beans, so the outside cover can be taken off and washed if need be.  I am really pleased with it.  I hope Tommy will be.






I was going to add some photos of my grandson here as the older one thinks it is funny to copy his month old brother.  





I think it is cute but then I am their nanny!!!!!!!!!!
