Welcome to the home of Stitchscapes!
Playful contemporary embroidery pieces focusing on texture, colour and print.
What is ‘Stitchscaping’ I hear you ask?
It is the act of capturing a moment, a view or an idea in a fabric photograph; suggesting parts of that image with colour, fabric and embroidery and creating an overall ‘scape’ through stitch.
Creating these mini works of art is so much fun; from picking out the fabrics which will inform my stitch techniques, to seeing how the piece develops into a final image. Sometimes it's as much a surprise to me as anyone!
Make Your Own!
Have a go at stitching your own 'scape with one of my fab embroidery kits!
Depending on your skill or confidence level, there are designs to suit everyone, from young stitchers to old-er stitchers. Please read what is included in each kit as some will come with full instructions and others are more guideline based.
I have two stitchscape kits exclusively designed for the-stitchery in Lewes, East Sussex, and all others are available from my Etsy shop.
Click on the kit images to go to my 'Kits' page and see further details about each one, including where they can be purchased from.
