{"product_id":"but-first-coffee-2","title":"But First Coffee Embroidery Design V2, Instant Download","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe phrase But First Coffee is laid out in a mixed lettering style, the But First and Coffee set in different typefaces so the eye moves between them. Theres a coffee cup element sitting in the composition, the kind of simple mug silhouette that you see in coffee-shop signage. Five colours in warm brown, cream, black, tan, and mocha tones, so the whole thing reads like the inside of an independent coffee shop. Its the colour palette that makes this work on kitchen textiles without looking like a novelty item.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDensity is 499 and stitch count runs from 9,772 at the 3-inch up to 28,565 at the full 8-inch width. Five colours means four colour changes, and the lettering sections use satin columns at varying widths depending on the type style. The script sections have narrow columns, block letters use a flat fill with underlay. Use a medium-weight cutaway stabiliser on any ground fabric for this one, the mixed lettering puts density variation across the design and the cutaway keeps everything anchored. Avoid hooping loosely, especially on linen, or youll get letter distortion on the wider fill sections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCoffee designs are one of those reliable kitchen gift categories and this one gets consistent orders through the year. A customer this past january bought three at different sizes for a set of kitchen gift items, a tea towel, a tote, and a small pouch, all stitched in the same brown and cream thread to match. She said her friend is a coffee shop owner so it was actually a relevant gift rather than just a generic kitchen design. There are alot of coffee designs out there but not all of them look this considered as a colour palette.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBest on natural linen or cream cotton canvas in those warm mocha and ivory tones for the coffee-shop aesthetic. Or go bold and stitch in white thread on black canvas for a high-contrast barista version. Skip the polyester or synthetic fabrics because the satin lettering sections dont sit as cleanly on slippery ground. Use a water-soluble topping on any linen that has surface texture to keep the letter edges sharp through the stitching.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Re Embroidery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46180572004502,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/6262\/9270\/files\/ButFirstCoffeeEmbroideryDesign.jpg?v=1768368670","url":"https:\/\/reembroidery.com\/products\/but-first-coffee-2","provider":"Re Embroidery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
