Tea Cross Stitch Patterns

It wasn’t intentional that I shared a coffee-related pattern in my latest designer spotlight and then had a collection of tea cross stitch patterns for my next post. But I imagine we could all use all the caffeine we can get, so let’s dig into these fun tea patterns!

I love this witchy watercolor tea pattern (it could also be coffee, who can say?) and think it would be a great one to stitch up for a tea or coffee loving friend. It comes from Pixel and Floss, and measures 124 by 194 stitches. It uses a whopping 55 colors to get that awesome look.

Need some help remembering how long to steep your favorite teas? This cross stitch pattern is also a recipe, including the time and temperature for preparing white, green, herbal, red or black tea. It comes from 1000sPatterns (an authorized seller of Your Briar Patch designs) and uses 24 colors and three blends in a stitch area of 130 by 108 stitches. It comes out to 9.29 by 7.71 inches and 23.6 by 19.6 cm on 14 count fabric.

Another cute one featuring different varieties of tea, this time represented by different styles of teapots and cups, comes from Stitchrovia. This would be super cute by your tea area. It measures 117 by 139 stitches and uses 16 colors. For a smaller project you can just stitch one or several of the pots or cups and change the colors to suit your decor.

If you’re a fan of Star Trek you’ll want to stitch up Captain Picard’s favorite tea order to hang in your ready room. This one from Stitch Riot Designs uses eight colors and measures 72 by 91 stitches. That comes out the 5.14 by 6.5 inches, or 13 by 16.5 cm, when stitched on 14 count fabric.

The Fancy a Cuppa? design from The Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery is really cute with smiling teacup, pot and sugar cubes. The design is 54 by 107 stitches and is 3.9 by 7.6 inches (about 10 by 19.3 cm) on 14 count Aida or 28 count linen.

Inkspire Studio Shops offers cross stitch patterns as well as tons of different stitch minders, scissor charms and thread organization tools.

We’ll get to all that, but since we’re mostly here for the patterns, let’s start there.

All of the patterns are in one category (called Inkspire Originals if you’re following along). There are a lot of book-themed projects and more of the designs are bookmarks than anything else. You’ll find trope bookmarks, a Reading Rainbow themed design, flowers and a super cute watercolor set bookmark, to name a few.

And while the book themed projects are by far the most numerous, I wanted to share this super cute pile of vintage Pyrex style bowls. I love the colors on this one and it should be easy to stitch because so much of it is blocks (or bowls) of a single color. This one is only available as a printed pattern, but most of them are digital.

It calls for six colors and comes out 5.6 by 6.9 inches, or 14.2 by 17.5 cm when stitched on 14 count fabric.

In addition to the bookmarks and book themed projects you’ll find a few kitchen projects and some Halloween and Christmas designs as well.

But what this shop is really about is needle minders, and there are tons of them, with all kinds of themes ranging from introverted and snarky to animal themes, food and beverages, retro designs and religious and inspiring needle minders.

If you don’t know about needle minders, these are acrylic with magnets. You stick a magnet to the back of your work, add the needle minder to the front of the work, and then it holds your sewing needle when you’re not stitching. No need for piercing your fabric or losing your needle between stitching sessions.

She also makes charms you can attach to your scissors (or use as a stitch marker if you’re a knitter or crocheter), inventory and project trackers and bags large and small to hold works in progress and other supplies. She’s also got a great collection of vintage cross stitch patterns and kits, so check out all the fun goodies at Inkspired Studio Shops.
