Fun with Dots on Dots!!!

I'm going Dotty!!!  Anyone want to go with me :*D

Today is my day to share my block !  

I had a TON of polka dotty fabrics to choose from when I started planning my block.  I actually didn't realize I had that many different dot fabrics until I started pulling them all :*)  LOL!!!

Just a sample of what I pulled !!!

I gave a hint in THIS POST about some of the fabrics I was thinking about using for the block.  And you'll be happy to know that I used almost all of those fabrics to make these CUTE little teapots :*)

I'm calling it A Spot of Tea.  How's that for a catchy title, huh???

I found this wonderful paper-pieced teapot pattern on Craftsy and HAD TO HAVE IT!!!  It is so sweet and just perfect for letting me play in lots and lots of my dotty fabrics =^..^=  (The corners are square, it is just the way I had to pin it to the frame because I didn't have time to make a hanging tube!)

And of course, four teapots are always better than one, right?!?  

Each teapot was a challenge because I fussy-cut the main motifs to fit perfectly in the centers.

It had been quite a while since I had done that, but I think they turned out pretty nice.  

Let me know if you would be interested in learning how to do that, and I'll put together a tutorial post :*)

No, I was not drinking anything alcoholic when I took this picture!!!   :*)

There's even a sweet red & white polka dot heart button in the middle!!! *swoon!*

I had fun finding cute places to photograph my new quilt ....

What did that cup say again????

Yep!  That's what I thought!!!  ***hehehehe***

I hope you have enjoyed my totally hot and spotty, polka-dotty block! =^..^= 

I really had planned to do a couple more, but time got away from me.  

You all know how that is, I'm sure :*)
If you're new to A Quilt and A Prayer, I'd like to invite you to follow along =^..^=

I'm sending much LOVE & APPRECIATION to Madame Samm at Sew We Quilt for all the fun blog hops she has been putting together for us!!!  And she has a lot more planned too, so go on over to see what she's cooking up next :*)  And a huge thanks to Corrie at Quilt Taffy who has been our cheerleader for the Dots on Dots Hop!  What a huge job, and these ladies have handled everything beautifully!

Don't forget to go give some love to these other wonderful bloggers who are also sharing their blocks today too, okay?
