Mad Carina's Mad Teapot
I don't do ceramics but, if I did, this is what I would like to make. I bought it for Mad Carina a few years ago and she treasures it - at the far back of a cupboard! I bought it in North End Road from a lovely cafe that has sadly, like so many small establishments everyone loves, closed down. They used to serve your tea in these pots with matching cups which I thought was just so whacky as well as most refreshing after a slog with my shopping trolly along North End Road market. I shall look out for more cafes with fun china.
My tea cosy project has gone horribly wrong. I rang M-C to complain. Although she is my ex-sewing teacher I still keep her on hand just in case. It tends to go along the lines of "M-C, I want to make something or other and I don't know how." She is so kind and never says "That's a shame because I'm not telling you." She gives me clear instructions which I ignore and botch it all up then have to call her with "Help, it's all gone horribly wrong and it's all your fault." I'm such a dear friend.
