Tea time - Teestunde

Our teapot - it is in my head all the time
I want to do pulled threads with this design
 
First sketch of the teapot and a cup
But I found that I have not the right fabric to pull threads together.

So I filled in simply some stitches.

and I changed my mind thought about needle lace.
This is the start. You have to do the outlines by couching
down a thicker thread.
 

... and then start to do the needle lace. I found

"Needlelace Talk" of Lorelei Halley with wonderful

tutorials and many answers to still more questions.

I am nearly ashamed to show this work following

the post before with the wonderful needlelace.

I made two posts not to have the direct comparison.
