  Step 1

  Transfer the pattern onto the tote bag. This entire project will be created using the Double Thread Method.

• 

  Step 2

  Begin by stitching the stem starting at the base, using the dark hunter green thread and the backstitch . Create the line in the center of each leaf with the same stitch. Stitch the small leaves at the tip of the plant with the fishbone stitch.

• 

  Step 3

  The leaves of the coffee plant are created using the satin stitch. Begin with your light greenthread and fill in the top half of each leaf using the satin stitch. The stitches should run perpendicular to the line that intersects each leaf.

• 

  Step 4

  Switch to the dark green thread and continue the same method on the underside of the leaves. Create the coffee cherries with the satin stitch and red thread. Add a small white stitch to each berry to create a highlight effect. Continue with the white thread to create the small flowers, which are made of 4 to 5 single stitches.

• 

  Step 5

  Use the indigo, light pink, light orange and medium yellow threads to add the small flowers. Some of the small flowers are made using the floral bud stitch. The others are daisies, created using the daisy shape method with orange and yellow single stitches for the pollen.

  Step 6

  Remove the water-soluble marker lines. I ironed my tote bag at the end to remove the crease from the hoop.
