Coffee themed embroidered tea towels

Caffe Latte

Last week I shared my fine china-themed embroidered kitchen towels.  This week I am going to share some more recent projects, a set of four towels from the Aunt Martha's "Java Break" transfer designs.  (I should clarify that and note that when I say "more recent", I mean within the last couple of years.  I made these for my daughter Carrie a couple of years ago.)

Cafe au Lait

As usual, I used flour-sack towels from Wal*Mart, which I generally cut in half for dishtowels as I think the full-size ones are just too unwieldy.

Coffee (and a cupcake)

If you are interested in using some of the same transfers as I did, here are the Fine China ones:  Fine Chinaware transfers.    And the Java Break ones are here: Java Break transfers.  While you are at the Colonial Patterns (Aunt Martha's) site, be sure to spend some time looking around.  They have loads of designs that might interest you.  There's a set called "Floral Teacups", another called "Floral Teapots" and many, many more designs.  You will be amazed at the variety.  There is one entire section just for day-of-the-week towels.  If you enjoy embroidery, you will love this site.  The transfer sets I've looked at are only $1.60!

Cappuccino

I trimmed these towels with coordinating fabric borders and had such fun choosing the colors!

I am sharing today with No Place Like Home and Bernideen’s Tea Time, Cottage and Garden Blog Party, as well as Roses of Inspiration.  Also sharing with Vintage Charm and Share Your Cup Thursday.  Be sure and visit these lovely link parties for some fun and inspiration!
