At 3 inches theres no drawn cup outline in the traditional sense. The whole cup form comes from dozens of individual coffee bean shapes packed together so tightly they read as a solid silhouette from a distance. Up close you see each bean: small ovals with a centre crease stitch, brown, dark burgundy-red, and black ones mixed across the shape so it looks mosaic-like rather than flat.
Rising above the cup, the word Coffee curls upward in loose cursive the way steam would, rendered in the same brown thread family. Stitch count sits at 7,755 at 3 inches and climbs to 17,078 at 5 inches, with 103 trims at the small size. Two color changes total, which keeps the thread swap process straightforward for something this textured.
Hoop fusible polymesh against the back on a canvas apron front. On denim, use a firm stabiliser so the weave doesnt shift mid-stitch. Hoop your fabric securely, dont just float it, or the bean outlines shift and you lose the mosaic effect entirely. Skip loosely woven fabrics, they wont give the beans clean edges.
One customer used this on a batch of denim tote bags for a small coffee roasters pop-up last spring and the bean texture on rough denim looked like it belonged there. Five sizes let you go from a pocket badge climbing steady to a tote centerpiece with the same download.

About the artist
Reyazul Masud Riham, hand-drawing every design on this site
Every design on Re Embroidery is hand-digitized by one person. Each file gets sketched, color-matched, and stitch-tested on real fabric before it earns a place in the shop. No team. No auto-conversion from images. Just slow, deliberate work, sometimes three or four days per design.
That's the joy I work for.
The hard part is finding my designs re-uploaded and resold elsewhere. So when you buy from Re Embroidery, you're paying one real person for the file you're about to download. That matters.
