Pattern description
This cross-stitch captures a cheerful coffee cup rendered in warm golds and creams, complete with wisps of steam rising from the rim. The composition is simple yet elegant, with the vessel centered on its saucer and carefully shaded to give the cup dimensional depth. The 104 × 104 stitch count makes it a satisfying intermediate project that isn't overly large.
The palette of 14 DMC thread colors creates a sunny, inviting mood perfect for kitchen décor or a cozy gift for any coffee lover. The shading technique—moving from pale yellow highlights to rich golden and bronze tones—demonstrates thoughtful color work without requiring advanced skills. Worked on Aida fabric with standard DMC floss, this needlework is ideal for anyone wanting to add a warm, food-themed accent to their stitched collection.
