Maybe I should say, "I'll make the dishes" I actually made some real dishes when I went through my ceramics/pottery phase way back in the day. Anyway...
I had fun choosing scraps to make into this stack of 8 dessert dishes. If only I had a set of dishes like these!
Tennis rackets, stars, paisley, sweet 1950's checks.
I have a great mix of fabrics because my friends give me their throwaway scraps, always asking the question,
"are these too small" and the answer is usually
"uh, NO!"
Looking at these I think a number of them were actually from my own projects except for the tennis rackets.
Would you like some cream in your drink?
I printed this little fella a bit small but valiantly pieced it anyway. I didn't do all the piecing printed on, I angled off the edges more, and appliqued the handle with the thread on the machine already. I might have to go back in the end and amend that.
Only a few baby blue pieces this month but here they are together.

I'm glad you are doing the dishes! I'll watch!
Nice dishes; I wish I had such modern table ware! Aren't they dishwasher proof?
Fun project -- if I had dishes like those, I would hand wash instead of dishwasher them!
Oh what fun!
I always enjoy watching you do the dishes!
Gorgeous creamer!
Love the stack of tea time dishes!
Take care,
Joanne
Really cute!
The creamer is an adorable addition to your collection.
Lovely set of blue dishes!
This is SO adorable! In my dreams I piece, but in real life, not. When I see things like this I want to piece!
Love your blue dishes. Great patterns and lovely blues.
Thanks for sharing them.
Hugs
This is so kitschy and cute ! Dishing up the kitch - lol!
I would love a real set of those blue paisley dishes!
These are great. Are you making a big quilt with them or just a wall hanging

I'm glad someone likes the paper piecing, cause I sure don't! !! All your little blocks are adorable and I hope to see more soon.
I love the picture with all the tea things, especially the blue cups/saucers set on top of each other.
Just wonderful. The things you can do with paper piecing!
Hello! I found you through Sew Many Ways' linky party. My, what pretty and precise work you do! I love this sort of thing, and don't know why I don't do more of it myself. Just too many projects!!
Visiting from Sew Many Ways linky party. I LOVE the two mugs with the fussy-cuts and the dishes...well, love them but you can still "do' the dishes.

Your stack of plates is so cute! I'd never visualized a block like that. That is just perfect for the other blocks you've created!
Love those blue dishes! Wonderful prints.
I am so glad you are doing the dishes. Let me do the cooking.
They look darling and I look forward to the finished product. Hugs to you, dear friend!!!
Very nice set! Scrappy dishes, who wouldn't love those?!! Thanks for sharing!!
Very cute!
I just can't get to love paper piecing for myself but I do love your project. All the sweet little dishes are just too much cute! Not mention those flamingos and those cows! All are swoon worthy.
Oh I just love these, how cute!
