Stitching time (estimate)
≈ 26–52 hours per design
That's roughly 6–11 weeks at about 5 hours of stitching a week. Just a rough idea: we assume an average of 100–200 stitches an hour, and everyone stitches at their own pace.
Christmas gift ideas →Twenty original postage stamp cross stitch patterns of the classic cocktails: Margarita, Mojito, Martini, Old Fashioned, Negroni, Cosmopolitan, Piña Colada, Daiquiri, Manhattan, Mai Tai, Moscow Mule, Spritz, Bloody Mary, Whiskey Sour, Espresso Martini, Tequila Sunrise, Mimosa, Sangria, Paloma and Cuba Libre. Each stamp shows the drink in its classic glass with its garnish, with a perforated white edge, a printed frame, the cocktail name and a value, like a vintage stamp.
Stitch one stamp as a small framed piece or card, or stitch all of them together as one big cocktail collection. Tip: the white perforated edge shows best on a contrasting fabric such as grey, blue, kraft or black Aida. An original House of Needelier design, ready to download and start stitching today.
