one little cow teapot

I have not decided on blocks to make this year with the RSC2016. The color this month is blues. I think I know what I want to make this year but I have an eye condition that has stepped up to interrupt my creative life.
Grrrr.
Suddenly over the holidays I floater covered my vision in my left eye, looked like a tree limb. Then flashes of light. Emergency visit to a retina specialist with this news. It was due to age. There is nothing to do about it. I have to wait for possibly months for it to clear on it's own. No one knows what causes it.

well!
Anyway, it makes reading, writing and sewing difficult.
I managed to make this one little lonely cow teapot to go with the black and white set.
The great news is I have a plan for setting the flamingos! It will be a good amount of work but look cool, I hope. I still have no idea how to set the dishes. All of it is on hold.

 So this little scrap had a perfect little flower lovin' cow perfect for a 4" teapot block!

Look what I found in the cupboard!

Black and white dishes to go with my colors from the rainbow scrap challenge for 2015. I know, I know...that's so, well, yesterday.

right out of the black and white scrap bin
this is how they looked before...
the block finishes at 6 inches square!


 As usual the pattern source is Sew Precise software from Shirley Liby.

finishing at 4" X 6 "

Pour yourself a cup from the musical coffee pot, into your cow mug...

and grab a snack of something tasty...

A little lime in your tea???

The color of the month at the RSC2015 is lime green. There is always room for more lime green dishes, because lime green IS a neutral, right? It is to me.
 I might be doing red violet for cows and flamingos, though, as I used lime in the ones done.

here's another latte cup, just chock-a-block full of sewing items. I'd like a cup like this, I sew!
And this cutest little creamer...

all decked out in one of my favorite color combinations of lime and turquoise. LOVE them together.
I want this too... pottery designers, are you listening?
