Coffee in a Kaffe cup

This week I've been working on my Tea Party quilt.  How I wish I had coffee cups like this at my house!



and shiny tea cups like this too.



I think they work well with my tea pot.



I've still got to applique flowers on to all of these blocks, but I'm happy that I've finally decided on my cups and tea pot.  Although I do like the softer colours used in the pattern, I like the darker cups and tea pot even more. 



I've added the finishing touches to some of the other blocks too.  There are 8 of these plainer blocks, and I've finished 3 of them.  




It's true, I do love fiddling about with fabric and threads.  Cutting and sewing these circles on made me happy this week. 


Now it's time for the Peacock Party.  What have you been up to this week? Feel free to link up a recent blog post below.

You could probably have the cups printed up with those designs. They'd certainly brighten that morning cup of coffee!

Such eye-grabbing, graphic prints! And you're adding flowers to those cups?! Will they be visible with everything that's going on in the background? Are you hand appliquéing those circles on the setting blocks? They look SO perfect? What tool are you using to make the circles? I'm just curious, as there are many ways to tackle circle-making. It's apparent you're having fun with this project, so keep doing so!
