I want to make a small hanging quilt for my dad's apartment door. He lives in a retirement community and he currently has a post it note he sticks on his door inviting his neighbors in for a cup of coffee. I have seen tons of coffee themed fabric, but I would like to put a center square that says something like "come on in, the coffee's on" or words to that effect. Do you have any suggestions, or have you seen anything like that?

What about applique or embroidry?

I thought about the embroidery or cross stitch, but I it would be very time consuming to graph it out and stitch it. But applique might be faster, not that I've tried it yet LOL

This one has the words "Open 24 hours"... would that be a possibility? Or "Coffee... served fresh and hot"?

If it is not rush request i might be able to practice using my embroidery machine and make you a block. Is there a time frame? what size should the block be?
