What a cute little pattern.
I agree with Deborah, cute pattern. I think it can also be made for a frigie. Just put a magnet on it.
This is adorable! OK, I gotta make some for my friends! Thanks for the pattern.
How darling. I have 3 friends who collect teapots & read, so this will be perfect for them. Thank you for sharing this.
Just found your blog and I'm keeping you! It looks like you do a lot of the same crafts I do. Very nice job on all of your creations!
how cute! well done :) two things I love: teapots & crochet!! :)

Very cute, I love tea and tea pots and also like to read. I will make one for myself and also for my friends who are avid readers.
Thanks
Hi Sue
Hope you are the same person I exchanged bookmarks with a few years ago. I use the lovely plastic canvas coaster you sent me every day--it is right here by my computer.
Cheers
Heather
Thank you so much for such a great pattern!! We are having a ladies tea with our church and this is perfect as a thank you gift to the ladies who put it all together.
