I don't remember telling my swap partner that I collect teapots but somehow she knew. I hope you can see the beautiful stitching around each pot and the tiny teapots in the border fabric. She even included a hanging sleeve as well as a label on the back. QuilterMomma did a terrific job.

The lawn's mowed, calves are fed, and an hour long chat with jillnjo tonight. Then pics taken of this stunning quilt by her.
My DH saw the back first and said "Wow" This from a guy who never says anything. Then I flipped it over for him. The detail work is stunning on this attic window rendition. The fabric is beautiful; the window view wonderful--the panes, the woodwork; then the stitching in the "wainscotting", a chair rail and the calming blue "wallpaper".
I'm still in awe. Oh and 2 pieces of blue fabric a bright paisley and some sunny daisies. Thank you again.
