A wall of words for anyone who does not get going before the first cup: CAFÉ in the middle and, around it, espresso, latte, cappuccino, macchiato, arabica, barista, with a moka pot, a cup and a coffee bean. 157 x 223 stitches and just 4 colors, all shades of brown, so it works up fast with hardly a thread change. For a kitchen, a break room, or a gift for the person you already have in mind.
Coffee: aroma and passion
