Hand embroidery atelier
Slow thread for fast times.
We embroider monograms, wedding linens and whole folk costume pieces by hand — the way they were made when things were made to be inherited.

Stitch sampler
Five stitches carry everything.
Every motif we make is built from a handful of old stitches. Watch them sew themselves — then spot them in our work below.

Four pins on the corkboard.
01
The motif
We draw your monogram or research your region’s pattern in the archives.
02
The threads
Mouliné, silk or metallic — laid on the cloth so you choose in daylight.
03
The sampler
A small trial piece first. You approve the stitch and the colours before the real cloth.
04
The stitching
Weeks, honestly. Hand embroidery is slow — that is the whole point of it.
Work
Needle over the years.

What should we stitch for you?
An initial, an heirloom to repair, or a costume piece for the next generation — write it plainly and we will answer with a sketch.
