You're right, Jules! And if I didn't already have so many things in
progress (including two more projects starting at camp this coming
week!), I'd probably give these a try -- I love tea and teapots! g

Those are really cute! I am going to try a pattern by Betty Alderman. It's
called "Teapot Collection" She has a BUNCH of applique patterns, and
Redwork/Bluework patterns. Here's a site with some of them.

The Teapot Collection is the fifth from the bottom.

Elena in Tx, still gathering fabrics for it.

talking about teapots. DH has been looking for one that has a mesh or
something of the kind on the inside, right where the pouring beak
starts, so you can simmer the leaves in liberty in the water, but they
will be stopped there and not poured into the cup. anybody seem any of
these? we can't seem to find them here. everybody suggests a hanging
basket, but for some reason that is not what he wants to use.

I've made that one, Elena! It's a lot of fun to do, though I'd probably
pick different colors if I made it again -- which I probably won't. g

Larisa, the closest thing I've found to what your DH wants is a teapot
from Upton Teas. It comes with an enormous mesh insert custom fitted to
the pot, allowing the tealeaves to float around almost completely free.
It works *so* much better than one of the little infusers! And an added
advantage is that the tea stops steeping when you take the insert out,
so you don't have to worry about the tea becoming too strong. If you
think this sounds promising, they have a web site at http://uptontea.com.

HTH.

Mat has a teapot that has such an insert. It fits inside the teapot
and is a sort of cylinder shape. Leaves float around at liberty to
brew, but don't pour into your cup.
Since we are serious tea fanatics, we also have many of the tea
thingies you pop into the pot, and also strainers you put over your
cup and just pour the leafy tea into (the strainer catches all the
leaves).
Let me know your requirements and I'll have a bit of a hunt
around...

Yours,

Just to clairfy, that should be addressed to Marissa...My DH can't stand
tea in any form.

NAYY, but getting ready to place another order for Darjeeling. Yum!

M: Try finding Stash Tea URL. May be stashtea.com but not sure.
Company sells many types of tea and lots of accessories for
brewing and serving tea. They have great paper catalog too. In
fact I am pretty sure they are in Seattle, so check your grocery
store and the yellow pages too!
