Cappuccino


It's telling me it's done and it's ready for finishing. The name has been changed to one more appropriate given the beading.

The coffee bean beans are actually glass; the cappuccino foam is an assortment of frosted white beads. I used a single strand of silk thread to outline the dupioni steam with blanket stitch. I also used perle cotton in a running stitch to create steam swirls - too chunky to be called "quilting" but manages to hold the upper part of the quilt sandwich together.

I really like it and I know it will look great hanging in the restaurant - be sure to click on the image for a close-up.

I really like it, too. The milk bottle is inspired.
