Introduce yourself — tell us your First Stitch story
Pull up a chair. I want to know who you are. Drop a comment (or your own post) below with: 1. Your name and where in the world you are 2. How long you have been stitching (or if you are brand new) 3. One thing you want to make — doesn't matter how ambitious No wrong answers. I will reply to every single one, and so will this community. I will start: I am Danielle. I am in Australia. I learned embroidery from my Nana at 10 years old and I have not put the needle down since. What I want to make right now is a field of wildflowers on silk. One day. Your turn.

Hello there! I’m Steph and I’m based in NJ. I started embroidering a few years ago and then, once I had more hoops than wall space, I became interested in visible mending and other upcycling. Right now, I’m embroidering wings onto the front door of a linen button-down I recently thrifted! I suspect it’s going to take me a good, long while. 😩 But here’s a quicker job I recently finished (embroidered flowers to reinforce a slipping hem).
