Good morning everyone! As promessed, here's a picture of one block I've made. Like I've mentionned, they're all the same, except in for the threads' colors, slight variation in shade. Hope you'll like it.

Denise, your block really turned out great. Love the fabric design and the solid color saucer, they really go together nicely.

Thank you for the compliments! Glad you like it. :-)

Evie, I've done the handles with the "steam-a-seam" fusible, ironed it in place and made blanket stitch all around as for the other pieces.

Oh WOW, Denise! I love your teacup--- beautiful fabric!!! And your blanket stitching is so perfect--- mine is not! Your stitches are all exactly the same size and so tiny! I need to work on my technique!

I am also planning on using steam a seam for my handles, but I am doing a satin stitch around them.
