STITCH — EMBROIDER — MEND
THE THREADS THAT CONNECT US

The most simple of things — a thread — makes everything possible. Mend what has been torn and in the process you make it a bit better, you have added a little of yourself into the cloth. Embellish with a stitch that tells who you are, how you care, and what you can do.



Shown top: Detail of a Saami quilt from Pakistan showing the playful creativity of the stitch. Below: the same Saami quilt, a length of Banjara quilting and two pieces of remade Japanese indigo quilting. 

Saami quilts are a fine example of artisan embroidery. We have a few for sale online.
