We did one of these a LOOOOOOOONG time ago, and thought it would be fun to do another one.

A tea cozy is basically a blanket for your tea pot. It can be crocheted, knitted, sewn, quilted, felted - pretty much any craft you can think of.

If you are interested, sign-ups will be taken until April 10th. Partners will be posted on the 11th. Mail out will be April 30th.

No specific theme this time around, but you may want to find out what your partner's favorite color is, what color is in her kitchen, or if she has something else she'd like to see.

Remember, tucks can be added as your heart desires and budget allows. They are not necessary - only optional. We're all really busy this time of year, with planting, etc. so please don't sign up unless you can commit. I also know that life is what happens when you make other plans, so if something unexpected DOES come up - please email as soon as possible so we can make arrangements with your partner.

Thanks, all, for looking, and have a great day!

Partners:
Since there's just the 4 of us, I think we'll do this round robin style. Mail your tea cozy to the person above you.
Ann (soapmommy60543) - mail to Kathy
Ginny (banana chicken) - mail to Ann
Deborah (debtea2) - mail to Ginny
Kathy (khartquilt) - mail to Deb

*Please email your partners today to get addy's, other info*

And thanks for swapping!

Hi, Ginny! And welcome to the farm!

If you are a beginner, this is the perfect project for you! Something small like this is a great way to get your feet wet, and practice!

If you are interested, I have some mug mat ideas on my blog (website address is in my signature line).

Kathy, mailed yours yesterday. It's on the way!

Ginny, yours came yesterday. How absolutely adorable! I love how you used cardboard and tissue to make a teapot to go inside the tea cozy! And I LOVE the colors you chose - that variegated yarn really worked up in such a neat pattern! My favorite part - the strawberry button. It's just TOO CUTE! The tea will also sure come in handy these next few (and hopefully last for a while) cool mornings.

Thank you so much!
