I have a PP teapot if you'd like a copy. I'd have to scan
and email you but this is something that I can do if you'd
like a copy. Going to make one myself one of these days!

Eleanor Burns has a cute pieced teacup in her "Christmas at Bears Paw
Ranch" book. I made it in blue and yellow for a tea drinking friend.

I wish I'd had Blue Willow themed fabric when I was working on this top.

Definately do a table runner or WUH in a Dresden fan or plate. That
would be gorgeous! deep blue backgrounds and centers. i think it would
be a hit!
