Crazy January Challenge- Day 10

Project 10: Coffee- letters and border are from Alphabet Needle Book from Robin (can't remember designer, it's all the way down 2 flights of stairs and I hurt too much to go look right now haha...will update that part later!!)

I decided to use the letters and the border inside the chart, along with the linen Robin sent me to make my own little coffee-ish design. I was sitting, thinking about what to do with these letters and thought about a little note Robin wrote into the card she sent, pointing out a little coffee spill, which made me laugh because I'm forever dripping coffee onto things. So I guess that was the inspiration for this! It will say coffee, latte, cappuccino and expresso down the fabric, with a big coffee cup in the middle with steam coming out of it. Maybe some little coffee beans or something scattered around as well...we'll see :-)


My no coffee challenge officially begins February 1st. I'm sure I'll dedicate that month to working on this one as a way to metaphorically enjoy coffee...or something?
