Happy Tuesday everyone.... Here is my card for today's Color challenge and Teapot Tuesday challenge. I made a Comfort Quilt - With a teapot pattern.... My oldest sister is a big time quilter - she has made quilts to give to family and friends who are going through a crisis, themselves or with family ... (with some of her quilts - the person in need keeps the quilt until they are through their crisis and then it gets passed onto the next person who needs it. I will be sending this card to Lindsey - as she is in need of a comfort quilt... See her story HERE
Must run... am babysitting one of my Grand daughters today...

OMG - I love all your little teapots! What an adorable stamp, and sew perfect for the challenge. Love the story of your sister's quilts being passed on - it's such a compassionate gift.

Mothermark had a post about stamping something with a lot of teapots- maybe you could help her out with this image!! Such a sweet card and sure to bring comfort to a young lady in a sad and difficult situation. I hope everyone floods her with cards.

I just love these teapots, and your sketch is grand. Perfect for using a border stamp like this. I like that it looks like shelves of crockery!! Great use of the challenge colors. Super job

That's a lovely idea of passing quilts on - though I think if I were ever lucky enough to get a handmade one, or found the time to make one myself, I would want to keep it. All those teapots are just wonderful - full of good cheer.
