Tea please, now!!I'm going to kill someone. Soon. I have so many ideas, but the family wont leave me alone with them for a second. Arrgh. I think I'd better do it the English way and make myself a cup of tea, and join Risa's teaparty (which I acctually missed, but I still need some tea and company, join me here if you like! Any angry mothers out there?). I did some really good finds at the fleamarket yesterday. The mug I'm having my tea from is a great addition to my collection of cups with numbers on, I got these coffee cups for Christmas last year. The tin I have my teabags in is from Marimekko (shop Finnish design on sale here. Look at Rinne Niinikoski's great clothes for example!). I will have my favourite tea, Keisarin morsian (the Emperor's bride) from Nordqvist. To celebrate the teaparty I'm going to put this tea cosy up for sale in the shop today.
I know my expectations are too high. I acctually got 15 minutes of sewing time and got this drapery made for the kid's room. Finally. I hate sewing straight seams. But I love the Designer's guild fabric and I love the price I paid for it in the favourite fabric shop I always talk about (desgner fabrics, vintage buttons, zippers and trims and a lot of rubbish). So I guess I should feel happy I got this finished. Now tea.

oh, i so know how you feel, my children irritated me in a way that only your own can, the day before the tea party. i'm so sorry to have missed you there, i love your cup and tin.
i will join you in more tea, i can never have enough so this will be nice. it is hard to believe that little guy could have been giving you fits, i just don't think it could be possible. love the fabric, that designer's guild fabric isn't available to the public here, too bad, more access to things like that would help americans find some style...
I love the design form your bag! Nice cup! I hope you enjjoyed your tea! Happy New Year!
that drapery is really wonderful! love the colors.
love that cup.. and the others!
Hey, thanks for stopping by my blog!!
So lovely to meet you :)
I love your cup and drapery, but most of all your tin!
hehe can totaly relate!! Us mothers can only understand!
Hope the tea helped - it usually does....
i sure do have days like an angry mum. But it must be your turn, because I am kid free for a couple of days and so enjoying me time. next week when the earth aligns with something in our solar system, you will be happily sewing away and I will be screaming at my children. it is just the way it works
What a doll! Loving the bag too!
