Motif Fourteen--Maltese Teapot




It took me nine tries to get this one right. Since I knew this would be the last one (no matter what), I worked it in size 100 thread just to see if I could. I went to bed that night (er, um, morning) a tired, but happy, tatter.

    Exquisite, Martha!
    I think the oval shape of the Maltese ring center makes the pot look nice and plump.

    What a beautiful little teapot! Are you sure it's the last one? I can picture it in Dresden blue and white, or maybe your favorite HDT!

    So pretty and dainty. LOVE size 100 or smaller thread. And I like your picot use. So many patterns are void of picots and I miss that. GOOD JOB!
