Afternoon Tea for Two


Afternoon tea with the homemade cakes, scones, vintage china and real tea leaves is something truly British that I absolutely love. For me, there is no nicer way to spend an afternoon than by finding a quirky little café in which to indulge yourself, people watch or read a good book.
This teacup was drawn in biro using a continuous line technique and then stitched into on my sewing machine and coloured using fine tipped pens. Holding it up to the light gives it a lovely magical sparkle. :)

My drawing was based on these vintage teacups given to me by a lovely lady who I used to wok with. She collected loads for her wedding and then gave some to me to save them from gathering dust in her loft.
