APril's Monthly Make is ...
Another "Tea Pot Cosy"...
I just LoVe this cute little pattern and thought this one would go great in a kitchen of similar colours. Hope so anyways!
Visit HERE to see all the other "monthly makes".
It's a HEART... obviously...
made from red and white felt.I've decorated it with ribbons and buttons... and I'll add some lavender in between the soft fibre filling just before giving it as a Christmas gift. It can then hang anywhere in the house... or on the tree... and should smell wonderful throughout the holidays!
It really was easy to make (just weave the felt) and I used up what embellishments I had on hand... but you could use anything... lace... ricrac... fancy stitches... etc.
Tick another GIFT off the list... hip hip hooray!
I've completed block 4 in "The Night Before Christmas" quilt.
Still have a lot left to do but it will be all ready for Xmas.
Alphabet challenge OPENS tomorrow.

Oh the tea cosy is so cute...
Lovely heart and your BOM looks great too...
Lots of nice sewing and knitting this month Cheryll.
Christmas throughout the year is a good idea. I made a Christmas decoration for each of my 8 children each month one year. It was so fun to give them their own box of goodies I had been busy on all year. Your tea cozy is lovely.
Do love your red and white decorations Cheryll - especially the heart :)
Have just found out about your Mini Quilt swap and am very tempted :) But I think for the moment I will focus on sewing for my design course. I will be following along to see all the great things that people make though. Good luck :)
Love, love the heart, such a clever idea, it looks fabulous. You are making such great progress on your xmas bom. I have been looking forward to what word you are going to use for this Alphabet Challenge, now I only have to wait until tomorrow, goodie.
love your tea cosy...a couple of my quilt friends are making them also..
Love your gifts, especially the heart. Would make a cute pincushion also.
A lavender heart...what a great gift!
Great job on all your finishes. You have been very productive!!
Such loveliness - that tea cozy is so sweet, love the heart, and that tree block!! Great colors Cheryll!
Your finishes are GREAT. Looks like you have been a busy girl.
