    Owner

    Hello, my name is Kate. I live in Aurora, IL with my little family. When I'm not running around with my three year old, I'm creating. I love making art, especially pieces that make you feel apart of it. I work with: yarn, thread and felt.

Frequently asked questions

Can you choose the backing color?

Yes, if you have a preferred color in mind, please contact me. If not, I usually use a corresponding natural color from the piece you are purchasing.

Can you change the type of flowers on one pieces? Or colors?

No, The flowers and their colors correspond with each piece, so a change is not available.

However, if you would prefer NO flowers, you can choose that option at the time of purchase.

I like the Idea but I would like a different embroidery image?

I am making a collection of 6 pieces. This is the first set, then I will add the next set later.

If you want to talk about a custom piece, please contact me. From there I can let you know if it is something I have time for or can do.

Why is there such a long processing time?

Every piece is made to order, takes anywhere from 20-30 hours to hand stitch. In each piece I used one thread of floss and there can be up to 40 different colors in each piece.

As well, the felted flowers are are part of the 20-30 hours, and are made for each order.

After the embroidery and felted flowers are complete, I add a felted piece to the back, and a sawtooth hook for hanging up.

Care instructions

Using a lint roller lightly over the piece to remove dust, is the best way to clean it.

Packaging

Once complete, each piece is wrapped in a honeycomb paper and placed in a compositable water proof shipping bag.

Finishing, and Framing

The piece is finished and framed within a 6" embroidery hoop; it is part of final look.

Shipping

Shipping free. Shipping is part of the final price.

Custom and personalized orders

Coming 2022, my store will feature custom embroidery pieces. These will include images of places, homes and more pop culture.

But as of now, my store will only have the Collection
that is featured.

Sold out???

If an item is sold out, will re-list once I have sent the “made to order” piece out.
