Have a Cup of Tea On Me

I've had a bunch of folks email and ask for the pattern for the Teacups Mini Quilt. I drafted a pattern when I made it, but it wasn't really a pattern. It was more like a list of measurements for me to follow. Because of all the requests I did my best to formalize it into something like a real pattern that folks might be able to follow. If you want to make your own, go to the tutorials tab at the top of the page, scroll down and click on the link above the picture.  It should take you to mediafire where you can download the pdf pattern.

This was quite a learning experience. I converted a word file to a pdf. I hosted the pdf file. Can you see me patting myself on the back? Whew!

Enjoy! I'd love to see your quilts if you use the pattern. If you have any problems or see anything that needs to be changed, I'd like to know about that too. Thanks!

I saw the pattern for the teacups a month or so ago, and after a brief time stalling around deciding what to amke of them, I decided to make a coffee cup pad for my self and my partner. I am right handed and Nancy is a leftie so I made them to match. I do not have the ability to send photos but take my word for it, they came out exactly as you intended. Thank you.

Wow, this is perfect! My daughter in law had my grand-daughter's room done with an "Alice in Wonderland" mural, and asked if I'd make a Teacup Quilt to match. Thank you for the pattern! Wish me luck. ;)

Hello, I see from the dates that this is an old pattern, but it is so cute and I am doing a "Tea" quilt. I'd love to have the tea cup pattern. Any chance on getting it still?
Thanks so much,

When are you going to repost the teacup pattern? We are hosting a high tea in conjunction with a quilt show of family heiloom quilts next summer. I am hoping to get someone to make a "teacup quilt" to raffle.

I am looking forward to the posting of your new revised Tea-cup pattern!
thank you!
