My wonderful husband and I were married on June 1, 1980, 31 years ago. This was my wedding china...a pattern I have always loved and use daily. My father bought me this teapot as a special gift.
Johnston Brothers "Rose Chintz"
I have always wanted to make some mosaics, but didn't know how. Finally I "winged it" with a package of clay from Michael's Craft Store, making the stepping stone below to immortalize my china..
Of course, since I didn't know what I was doing, the rounded edges of the broken cups are jagged and sharp. But, it is in the garden. I am a quilter...but, I feel inspiration from this blog to branch out, http://multicoloredpieces.blogspot.com/ Some day, I will learn it the right way and continue to bring back to life all the many scraps of my life.

I have never seen that pattern before and it is very pretty. I love teapots. I wonder if most dishes have matching teapots any more. I like your stepping stone too.
It's very sweet. Good for you for taking new steps.
I think you did a beautiful job! I am forever handing Joe the glue to put the handles back on the cups ... but I love what you did with the broken pieces! Thanks for letting me know . . . I just love that pattern (you probably know that!) :-) Thank you!
Amazing china...love it!
The stepping stone is simply gorgeous!
