This week our Tea Pot party cards will go to Cheryl, aka cherylQuilts at SCS. She is experiencing some health issues, and we want to send some cheer. What better than this House Mouse quilting image! These adorable mice are working on a labor of love (At least, on paper, the are adorable....) I have had the image in my WishRAK stash for a very long time - saving a few for special situations. I colored with chalk pencils, and backed with some DP that has also been in my stash for a very long time. A bit of Washi tape and some cord (ironically, a cast off from our church quilting group!) complete the card.

LOL, yes, it's only on paper that mice are adorable - although as a child I used to try to rescue the little garden mice from my cat. What a great image - look at that little lazy mouse snoozing on the pile of patches - like a picture of the princess and the pea!!

Oh, Dorothy, when I opened this card yesterday (or perhaps the day before), even my DH sighed and said, "ah!" What an absolutely darling little group of mice busily working on this sweet quilt, and you've colored it so beautifully! And it did not escape me to see the little bitty one on the top of the fabric - hehe! I love it and love the sweet DP you've used along with the twine with the gold twisted around it and the lovely washi tape that was in your stash! So sweet! I am so touched by your coming to the tea party for me! I am so encouraged and feel so loved. Thank you, precious friend! xoxo
