Teddies in Blankets to munch on.

I'm making these today for a bit of fun for my son's gf when they get home tonight, and really just because I want to and I'm sure the other adults will partake as well!

Cute Idea!

ETA - much much MUCH later the same afternoon.....


Time consuming but fun and they totally impressed the couple of man children that were home this arvo, even  though they were pink.
Lost a few already after this photo but they did wait until after lol - Jen.

Flower Pot Tea Cosy

Hi all,
Mother's Day will soon be here, and I've put up a little Tea Cosy pattern in memory of my Mum, and for all Mums who enjoy a pot of Tea in the mornings.

I started this tradition last year, with my Daylily Tea Cosy
I still make a lot of Daylilies to sell. They were my Mother's favourite flowers and they're quite fun to make, experimenting with an array of different colour combinatons.
They remind me of the garden at my old family home, which belongs to someone else now.
I wonder if the Daylilies are still coming up in the garden every year!

Just recently I saw a little flower pot of Pink Daisies at our local garden centre, and thought  it would make a cute Tea Cosy.
This isn't a new pattern, but a simple variation of my Flower Garden Tea Cosy  with a few alterations.....

FLOWER POT TEA COSY


I've included instructions for only the smallest tea cosy from the Flower Garden pattern. 
You know how much I adore tiny tea cosies :-). This one has 10 crochet daisies so you'll need to do some crocheting as well.
