This is the first in a series for a customer on Etsy called Teacup
Friends. The difficulty of making the
Teacup Friends is making them same enough that they fit inside of the teacup
without the teacups being huge themselves.
The finished TeaRex has “Steph” and the teacup has “Stephanie” embroidered
on it. I can only assume that this is a
gift for someone named Stephanie.

PLATE:
I am not going to begin to dictate how to make the PLATE. I tried three different techniques before
doing the one that I finally decided to go with. I started making the PLATE in the middle and worked
out from there. I have included the
graph of the pattern I used to make the PLATE.
I am open to suggestions to make it.
I started the PLATE with a ch of 42 using blue.EDGING: With gold, sc evenly around outside edge of PLATE. Finish off. Weave in ends.
