Coffee -- the other vitamin C
 
4 Attachment(s)
OK, you guessed it --- I LOVE coffee! I drink so much of it every day that I can thread a sewing machine while it's running! That's why I knew I had to stitch these designs from Urban Threads. It's their collection called Coffee Break. And besides, I really enjoy the challenge of combining embroidery with my quilting. Here is the entire wall hanging, and a few close-ups.

I hope that you are keeping this quilt since you seem to be such a fan of coffee.

Not normally a fan of machine embroidery, but this is great! I must confess I am addicted to "the bean", as well.

Ah Barbara..... you're making me blush! Thank you! :)

Love your coffee panels! (The center one I should have had hanging on my desk at work - people knew not to talk to me before my first sip of coffee.) Your work is great!

I had to chuckle when I saw their design that said "No coffee -- no workee"!

IJustWant2Sew 04-06-2016 03:22 PM

Looks wonderful!

Melspoon 04-06-2016 04:08 PM

This one made me smile! Love it!

Veinurse 04-06-2016 06:52 PM

Beautiful!! I just have to tell you about a lady in our church. She would drink from 3 to 4 pots of coffee a day. She recently died, at 95!

Bluebonnets 04-06-2016 08:02 PM

This is beautiful!

beatys9 04-06-2016 08:13 PM

Very nice - Coffee quilt would be a big hit around here in Seattle...

Ditto. I don't drink coffee, but I really like this. BrendaK

Love it. You did an excellent job coordinating the fabric, colors and the embroidery designs to make an incredible quilt. I have several "planned" embroidery squares in my head for future quilts. Enjoyed seeing yours to help motivate me!

quilterpurpledog 04-07-2016 03:15 AM

I like coffee; but, obviously, not as much as you do. I like your quilt and the embroidery designs. It is really a clever quilt and will always evoke smiles and fun comments. Great ideas and so cute.

Kris P 04-07-2016 03:36 AM

OH, I should order these designs and make a wall hanging, too! I LOVE coffee. It's the reason I get up an hour before my kids. I need to get a jump start on caffeinating before they get up. When I climb into bed at night, I often tell my DH, "I can't wait to get up and drink coffee." Sounds like a problem, right? Well, about a month ago, I decided to cut my coffee consumption in half. I'm down to drinking a 4 cup pot instead of 10. Each day. I also mix our beans before grinding, so 2/3 caffeinated and 1/3 decaf. Wouldn't you know, I'm sleeping much better at night!
