Hello Friends,
First Saturday of the month I join Jo for The People's Choice SAL . Jo takes a poll for people to choose a topic for the month and the participants then post about stitchy projects related to that topic.
This month's topic is Coffee. I'm not a fan of hot drinks,be it tea or coffee. However I drink tea twice a day for psychological reasons.
When I started my career, people in my office used to take tea or coffee breaks. At first I didn't join them, then I realised these tea breaks were a way to relax one's eyes as we used to work on a computer for 9 hours, also time to chit chat a bit.
After working in the industry for 15 years , my mind asks for tea or coffee at defined hours of the day otherwise I feel tired.
I prefer coffee over tea , however coffee served in India contains milk and sugar unlike the bitter one I tasted on my first trip to USA.
During my time in Kuwait, I met people from all over the world and came to know that coffee is a big part of western culture. Our craft meetings were held in Coffee shops and never in 4 years did I drink hot coffee.My go to drink was Frapuuchino.
Having said that I love cold coffee specially one served with one scoop with vanilla ice cream. Have you had one?
For obvious reasons I don't have any coffee patterns in my stash , however I stitched one for my friend in Kuwait.
This is a free pattern from kincavel krosses.
I have saved this free pattern to be stitched for my coffee loving friends
Palko lap has many cute coffee patterns , go check the link out.
That's all I have to show related to Coffee.Have a nice day.

That's all I have to show related to Coffee.Have a nice day.
I find it fascinating how our tea and coffee drinking is different in different countries. I don't like milk and so was never interested in hot drinks until I discovered black coffee in France, I drink quite a few cups a day but no tea.
ReplyDeleteYour coffee pillow is lovely.
Pretty coffee pillow, great choice of fabric.
ReplyDeleteThanks for taking part in The People's Choice this month. I like the design you stitched for your friend and the freebie is great too.
ReplyDeleteI have never had cold coffee deliberately! Not sure what it would be like with ice-cream either.
I feel the same way about coffee. I only drink it cold. I will have to try it with vanilla ice cream, that sounds lovely! I love your "I love coffee" stitch, the threads look awesome on that fabric!
ReplyDeleteI'm not a coffee or tea drinker--wish I was as it seems like such a social thing to do :) I do LOVE coffee flavored ice cream, though!
ReplyDeleteI will only drink coffee if it is very milky. I've tried black coffee once and immediately added milk to it. I am much more of a tea drinker. Lovely stitching x
ReplyDeleteHow sweet of you to make that for your friend, it's lovely! Thanks for sharing both patterns, I like them both.
ReplyDeleteI was very disappointed when I ordered an Iced Coffee in the US and just got cold coffee with ice cubes. Here, Iced Coffee has vanilla (and sometimes chocolate) ice cream and it's soo good!
