Bespoke & personalised embroidered creations just for you

Hi, I'm Michelle and sewing is my passion.

I've been sewing since I was a girl and my newest passion is machine embroidery.

I wanted to learn this new technique so I could go a step further with my sewing and make beautiful items which are completely unique and bespoke. I own several sewing machines and have even taken one with me on holiday in our caravan.

Approximately 3 years ago I bit the bullet and bought my first embroidery machine (an Elna Xpressive860) and I've not stopped since then. My next machine was a Brother V3 and wow, what a learning curve that was, it was absolutely amazing. I've since traded that in for my third machine (Brother Stellaire XE1) as I wanted even more options so here I am, selling my creations online.

My aim is to eventually make this my full time business when I eventually retire but, for the moment, I'm working part time in my day job.

I'm a fabric hoarder and have amassed a lot of fabrics over the years. Now the kids have left home, I've expanded my collection as there's just so many gorgeous fabrics now and I just can't resist them.

I absolutely love all the amazing embroidery designs available, there's so much to choose from, and I've learnt so many new techniques (floating, applique, IntheHoop), I've learned them all so I'm combing these skills with my sewing skills to make beautiful bespoke items.

I've received some absolutely amazing feedback which has been very encouraging and I always provide a fully personalised bespoke service for each of my customers making beautiful unique items that will become treasured gifts.
