I ordered a book by Kyao from JapanLovelyCraft that included a tutorial on how to make embroidered brooches. A few brooches in and I’m hooked! I love that you can take any design, trace it onto fabric, and turn it into something wearable! Everywhere I look, I’m seeing designs for more brooches. Stay tuned for more!

I took a photo of a rose on my phone and turned it into a brooch pattern.
The wild rose matches this stone carving at Blackwell the Arts & Crafts House

I'm a dye hard fan of textile history and come from a family of crafters. I'm interested in learning more about embroidery by trying out age old techniques with a contemporary twist. I hope you enjoy looking through my projects and that they inspire you to give stitching a try!
