I am a big tea lover both hot & cold.I have had a tea cozy on my to do list for quite some time so I am pleased to have finally completed this one. I don't have any tea cups too match but I do love the fancy tea cups & use one as often as I can. No point in leaving them in the china cabinet to look @ I much prefer to use them & enjoy the elegance of the cup. The teapot was one of my gramma's & I treasure it

Very pretty cozy and lovely cup and saucer. I agree with you, use what we like and quit saving them. Life is too short to save things. enjoy them.

Very rich looking material. Things today do not have to match at all and still look good. Enjoy!

A variety of beautiful tea cups always looks very pretty. Even people are not the same as my grandmother use to say. Just enjoy.

I like this kind of cozy that leaves the handle free - and cooler. Nice fabric. Well done!

I love tea also but don't make or drink it unless someone in my family likes it and is coming to visit. I just plop the teabags in water in the microwave. My teapots sit out for decoration only---Yours are beautiful and you've done a beautiful job and love those fabrics.

Lovely fabric, don't understand how a tea cozy works but it's very pretty. Beautiful teapot and cup. I'm glad you are enjoying them. Makes the tea taste better! hugs :)
Is there a pattern for this somewhere?

Very sweet. Makes me almost want to start drinking tea. Coffee is my preference, but his looks very inviting.
