Happy Wednesday to you! Today I have been working on a quilt block for the Cocorico Online Quilting Bee on Flickr. Kylie asked for tea themed blocks for her quilt.
Kylie supplied some great images and I used one of them for the inspiration for this design.
I am happy with it overall but I think that next time I will make the spoon in a darker fabric so it "pops" a bit more.
I will be sure to share here on my blog when the pattern is in my shops for sale : )
I love the tea bag - that adorable tea pot motif is from a Japanese fabric I have had in my stash for ages and I love to use the motifs for paper pieced blocks.
Be sure to head on over to Freshly Pieced for more wonderful Works in Progress or search the hashtag #WIPWednesday on Instagram. : )

How adorable! I love the spoon fabric - so perfect! But you are right, it doesn't show up right away. Sometimes subtle is better though - makes the viewer look more closely :)
