Teapot Time!

The first new teapot for me to tat in Martha's book is the Tiny Square teapot, mainly because my tat friends got their book today (and they LOVE it) and this was an easy one for all to do.

My first one strangely enough looks a lot like Martha's one...why do I always like her colour choice!!


This one is in size 20 Flora and is nearly 3inches wide.

Now to go mad and tat it in something exotic..what could that be...why not Blue Lagoon from Fiji..now doesn't that sound nice. You just knew that was coming didn't you!!



This one is in Size 40 Blue Lagoon with a solid Deep Turquoise Green from my BL solids for the outer round. I think this is beautiful. It measures just under 2.5 inches.

My final teapot is again in size 20 and Blue Lagoon with a Flora deep purple contrast, very striking but I like the calmer second one the best.



Isn't it funny the effect that the turquoise green has on the Blue lagoon colour in the second teapot. It looks very green while the last one looks very blue.

I would like to try this teapot again with only the central trefoils in a different colour and the two outer rounds the a different colour. how I like to experiment.

My friends got on well but Jackie was the only one to finish, here is her teapot.



Isn't that pretty.
