Tea for two

So I found my quilting rhythm again to put together this tea cozy and placemat set for a charity fundraiser at my DH's office in a few weeks. The only prerequisite was the blue in the letters. I had some fun with this, and even cut into recently-purchased yardage for this project. (My long-term followers will know that I brag about not sacrificing yardage for projects.) I used a variety of dot fabrics in these -- the blue and white is Apple Pie by American Jane and the background for the letters is called Santa& Company by Cheri L. Strole for Moda. It has line drawings of snowflakes and flowers in blue, red, and lime green, so it doesn't look like a Christmas print to me. To balance off the new fabrics in the placemats, I did throw in some tiny swiss dots in red and blue from Concord Fabrics that probably qualify as vintage. My placemats are a smallish 10.5 by 15, but big enough I figure for a cup of tea and a small plate. I have a few more requests for tea cozies, but the rest are coming from the scrap or selvage bin. For the record, I didn't pay more than $5 /metre for any of these. So yes, I'm cheap---er, thrifty, and of course, always scrappy. What could be better?
