“Cuppa” Tea Patterns

There’s nothing like a hot cup of tea on a cool autumn day.  Here’s a few quilt patterns that celebrate tea drinking.

This wall hanging of delicate Little Teapots can be embellished with doilies and teatowels.  You can also use cotton print fabrics.  Reverse applique is the method used for the teapots.  Designed by Ursula Riegel of Designs To Share With You with clear step-by-step instructions.

This Tea Cupboard has all the teapots, cups and saucers you’ll need and a cabinet to store them.  Use your scraps and have fun “designing” your own china.  This pattern will finish at 42″ X 60″ and uses paper piecing.

Tea Party is a delightful, bright table topper that you can make quickly and easily.  This wool felt project would make a perfect gift, either the pattern or the finished table topper, for that tea-drinking special friend.

Make a Tea Cozy and you can also make a trivet and runner to match.  The flower designs will make you feel like you have a little piece of Summer or Spring to hold you until the real thing returns!

Here’s a big project but you’ll love the finish.  Tea With Strawberries And Cream features twelve teapots with themes for each month of the year, plus six yummy recipes, such as Chocolate Dipped Strawberries and Chocolate Scones.  Mmmm, is your mouth watering yet?

  And don’t these fabrics make you think of tea time?   Take a yard or two and add some greens or beiges and make your favorite pattern.

Ok, grab a “cuppa” tea and browse the rest of the quilt patterns.  Enjoy.
