British Biscuits Appliqued Cafetiere Cosy

'Sewing World' Magazine October 2015


Regular readers will know that my Patchwork Sprocket Cushion was featured in this month's Sewing World Magazine, however I'm delighted to announce that another of my projects also made an appearance;



This 'Sweet Treats' Appliqued Cafetiere Cosy 


Featuring iconic British biscuits such as Jammy Dodgers and Fox's Party Rings, it's just the thing to add some fun retro chic to any kitchen.  The appliqued biscuits conjure up such memories of childhood teatime treats, I was always partial to a 'Nice' coconut biscuit although I wasn't quite so keen on Pink Wafers!


The magazine includes a full sized pattern and should the teacup not rock your boat, simply change it for the recipient's initial;


The design is also perfect for tea cosies....


...time to get started on stitching all your Christmas gifts!

    I liked bourbons, and my sister liked gypsy creams - neither of us liked pink wafers. My Mum once said "I'm not buying chocolate biscuits, because you just eat them"!!

      That sounds like just the thing that would also be said in our family!

    Hi Josie,

    This is weird! I was sitting with a box of Broken Biscuit Assortment at my side as I looked at my Blogger Dashboard and your heading "British Biscuits ....." jumped out at me!

    "Nice" biscuits and pink wafers are my all time favourites! What gorgeous appliqué tea cosies! Super idea. Well done you - two more projects published!

    I loved pink wafers but my all-time favourites were Garibaldi biscuits :) What a great theme for a cafetiere cosy!

    I love this. The biscuits are brilliant. I was very partial to a Nice biscuit and Malted Milks reign supreme. Congratulations on another fabulous article. Xx

    I love your cafetiere cosies, they are such lovely designs. I can think of a few people who might appreciate one of these for christmas time - I'm going to be busy over the next few months making up some christmas surprises, so I shall be on the look out for inspiration over the next couple of months for sure! :-)
