Bring summer polish to your stitching with this elegant cocktail glass design, drawn as a tall stemmed drink with a bent straw, citrus slice and a small flower and leaf detail. The mix of yellow, gold, pink, red, purple and green gives it the look of a properly garnished drink rather than a basic outline, while the black accents keep the shape crisp and modern. It suits anyone sewing for a home bar, holiday wardrobe or warm-weather hostess gift and wants something a little more refined than novelty drink motifs.
Because it is an open, lightly stitched design, it will sit neatly on lighter fabrics without turning stiff, which makes it a good choice for linen napkins, cotton tea towels, aprons and shirt pockets. It would also look smart on a beach tote, a set of cocktail cloths or the corner of a summer table runner where the airy stitching can show clearly. With 12 thread colours, it has enough detail to feel finished and lively without becoming visually heavy.
