Potomac Beads carries five "roasts" or colors so you can pick the bead that best matches your preferred type of coffee.  They are roughly 3/8 of an inch so they would work for many of the coffee canvases available, like these--

Sip and Snip

Twisted Stitches Needlepoint in Albuquerque, New Mexico has a gadget I've not seen before--a holder for both coffee and orts that clamps to a table.  Very clever!

Ribbon Handles for Coffee Cups

Rachel Donley has a line of fun coffee cups and recently posted a photo of them on Facebook.

Look at the two standup cups in the background--they have ribbon handles!  Isn't that clever?!  Of course you need the right shape.  My Pink Sugar Life has coffee cups that would work.

Here's a better photo.  Looks like the ribbon has a backing.

One Park Whimsy has a French press that you could finish this way to make a grouping.

You'll need a needle minder when you stitch your coffee, right?

Coffee Cups has a New Home

Melita's stitching group stitched this fun piece and donated to the local coffee shop as they met in one (now closed) to stitch together.
