origin

Our story

We began as a pair of makers renting a single table in 2015. Over the years our small workshop grew into a focused atelier that specialises in practical, repairable embroidery. Today we coordinate a local network of stitchers and keep all finishing within a short radius so clients receive reliable lead times and direct traceability.
