🧵 What are you stitching at the moment? 🧵

We’ve been busy reorganising the shop recently so we can show off our embroidery and cross-stitch supplies even better, and we’ve also been unpacking some lovely new embroidery and cross-stitch kits. It’s been inspiring to see so many creative possibilities all in one place!

Whether you’re stitching colourful flowers, creating personalised gifts, working on a sampler, or starting your very first project, there’s something wonderfully relaxing about watching a design come to life one stitch at a time. ✨

Seeing all these beautiful threads, fabrics, hoops, and kits has got us wondering—what’s currently on your hoop?

Share a photo of your latest project in the comments. We’d love to see what you’re creating! ❤️🪡

PERSONALISED PROM KEEPSAKE PRINTS
£7.99 plus P&P.
Collection is also available.

Celebrate one of life's most memorable milestones with a beautiful, personalised prom keepsake print.

Using photographs of your child and their prom dress, I create an elegant watercolour-style portrait featuring their hairstyle, dress details, name and prom year, resulting in a unique piece of artwork that celebrates this important milestone.

Each A4 print is professionally produced and designed to become a treasured keepsake for years to come.

Perfect as a gift from parents, grandparents, family or friends, these prints make a wonderful reminder of the memories made, the friendships celebrated and the exciting future ahead.

Personalised with name and prom year
Created from your photographs
Elegant watercolour artwork
Professionally printed A4 keepsake Ideal for framing!

Please message me for details or to place an order. I will need:

1. A clear photo of your child from behind.

2. A photo of their prom dress (if separate)

3. Their name and prom year

Once you've sent your photographs and personalised details, I'll review everything and send you a payment link. As soon as payment has been received, I'll begin creating your bespoke keepsake artwork.

Before your print is produced, you will receive a proof to review and approve. This gives you the opportunity to check all details and request any minor changes before printing.
