A grid of six tea themed cross stitch patterns. The first is of a pond held in a translucent teacup. In it, a frog and fish keep each other company. The second is of a teacup that's been put back together with gold. Jasmine flowers sprout up out of the teacup. The third is of a blue teaup with a heart pattern design. Swirling green steam rises from the cup, with the word POISON formed in its negative space. The fourth is of a pink to purple ombre tea being poured into an asteroid themed tea cup. The fifth is of a tea cup filled with a liquid grinning jack-o'-lantern. The sixth is of a tea setting with a cup of green tea, a teapot, tamago sushi, and chopsticks. In the centre of the grid are the words "Steeped in Stories A Cross Stitch Zine"
