From a distance, it’s all neat rows of stitch patterns — but look a little closer and you’ll spot the hidden message woven into the design. This mug and coaster set is made for busy stitchers who don’t have time for nonsense… and aren’t afraid to say so (quietly).

Whether it’s “I’m busy”, “F** off”*, or another delightfully naughty phrase, the swear is stitched right into the pattern — subtle enough to pass the tea test, bold enough to make you smile every time you sip.

What’s included

• 11oz ceramic mug Printed with high-quality inks and a detailed stitch-inspired design. Handwash only to keep your mug looking its best.

• Neoprene coaster Soft, durable, and non-slip — with matching hidden-swear design. Perfect for desks, craft rooms, or anywhere you need a little stitched sass.

Why it’s fab

• A brilliant gift for crafters, sewists, and anyone who loves a hidden giggle

• Subtle enough for the office, cheeky enough for your best mate

• Designed with love in the Ginger House Designs studio

A little note

Every screen shows colours a little differently, and the printing process can create subtle variations — making each piece uniquely yours.
