I was elated to see Cheryl's name under the Tea Pot Party challenge today. Sheri, thanks so much for making this happen.
Cheryl is a dear friend and one who has been spiritually supportive of me while I was a caregiver to my husband. Cheryl was and is always so supportive with her kind loving comments that reflect her profound faith in God. She is also a most gifted and generous stamper to others in need of support.
Our worlds have changed a bit recently: Cheryl is experiencing intense chronic neurological pain. Cheryl's husband has come to her aid with helping her do the smallest of tasks. I'm thinking, right about now, Cheryl could use some cheering up from the teapotters.
As usual, I cheated "again" today. Sheri had asked us to bring scissors and other related incidentals to the party today to prevent the quilt from further unraveling. I didn't bring scissors or needles, but I did bring a pattern image and a button. I'm here on a wing and a prayer hoping that my humor will help everyone else prevent unnecessary damage to the quilt.
Cheryl, enjoy the spirit of the famous tea partiers who've crafted some wonderfully creations to send your way. Hugs and love, Anne

Leave it to you to bring some chic ladies to the party! Your yellow woman looks like she belongs on a Vogue pattern or in the pages of Vogue magazine! I love the background panel showing the yardage...reminds me of spending lots of time looking through pattern books and then the excitement of picking out my fabric to go with the design. A lovely card and perfect for someone who sews.

I'd say fussy cutting IS bringing scissors and I am sure Cheryl will be delighted with your beautiful and creative card! What an outstanding job you did with the pattern images, so perfect for Cheryl! Your cheerful colors will bring smiles!

These pretty girls remind me of home-economics we had to take in school. Sewing machines and I are not the best of friends, I remember the buying of the patterns and all the cutting, was neat saying yo mad it all yourself, but now I just leave it to the pros...he-he. Such stylin ladies here with wonderful outfits. Such a neat retro look, and even a matching button in case our model is needing an extra...Cheryl will LOVE this very chic card...TFS and all your kind words too. Such sweet people here...HUGS
