these are so pretty!
Dude, you rock and you truly are an inspiration. Seeing all your creations puts a smile on my face and think 'of course'....you are the domestic diva.
oh and you forgot ice cream on your list of likes (ha ha).

oh how wonderful!!
The picture of the tea cosy doesn't do it justice - it doesn't show the four-sided shape, or the pretty lining ... my camera is broken, when it is fixed I will take some pictures . Also, it fits on the little teapot perfectly!
hello. new reader here and i can't believe how comfy that quilt looks. would go perfectly with some hot cocoa and a good book. or a nap.
beautiful beautiful work.
xo.

btw, Reva- I wear that scarf every day. It's just so soft and warm, and the colours go with everything. Thanks again for such a one-of-a-kind.
