Two For Tea — A Simple Hand Embroidery Pattern

Put the kettle on and settle in for a little peaceful stitching with Two For Tea, a sweet Thimbles & Tales embroidery pattern celebrating friendship, flowers, and the simple pleasure of sharing a cup of tea.

This charming design features a whimsical stack of vintage-style teapots and a coordinating teacup, all decorated with delicate flowers, leafy vines, and tiny stitched details. A cheerful little bluebird has found the perfect perch, while daisies and garden blooms surround the tea set. The sentiment “Good Friends Make Everything Better” makes the design especially lovely for stitching as a gift for someone special.

Designed with simple hand-embroidery stitches and minimal fill, the pattern lets the fabric show through while soft red, blue, green, gold, and neutral accents bring the design to life. It has enough detail to be interesting while remaining approachable and relaxing to stitch.

The pattern includes a full-size transfer design, DMC floss color suggestions, and a stitch guide to help you create your own cozy tea-time project.

Perfect for framed embroidery, tea towels, pillows, tote bags, table linens, tea cozies, or handmade gifts for friends and tea lovers.
