Drift into island time 🌴⛵️

This one-of-a-kind hand embroidered sailing scene was inspired by turquoise water, quiet coves, and the feeling of chasing the wind between tiny islands. Stitched by hand on linen using layered thread painting techniques, this miniature seascape is set in an antique bronze bezel on an embossed leather magnetic bracelet.

A tiny wearable reminder of salt air, sunlit sails, and slow adventures at sea.

These tiny robins began as a sketch on linen… and slowly came to life, one stitch at a time.

Each feather, each leaf, each detail is carefully embroidered by hand—turning thread (19 shades in all) into something you can wear and keep.

Available in both 20mm round and half moon pendants, each one completely one of a kind.

Which one would you choose?

Monarch in Milkweed II

This second interpretation found its home at the 4 Bridges Art Festival, alongside the first.

A quiet moment in the monarch lifecycle,
threaded wing to wandering caterpillar,
stitched into linen and held in carved wood.

Each bloom built slowly with tiny French knots, each leaf shaped stitch by stitch, until the scene feels like it could move.

Milkweed isn’t just a backdrop… it’s survival.
It’s where the story begins.

And now, this one continues its journey with someone new. 🧡

Would you want to see a third version in butterfly milkweed, the one with bright orange blooms?

Spring arrives quietly in the Blue Ridge… 🌸

Blush of the Blue Ridge
Wild azaleas unfold across quiet ridgelines, each stitch placed to echo the softness and depth of early mountain spring.

Hand embroidered on linen, set in a hand-finished hardwood bezel.
One of a kind.

🍄 A few new forest dwellers have emerged…

Hand embroidered fly agaric mushrooms, each one built layer by layer—thread painting for the caps, dimensional stitching for the skirt, and textured moss made with turkey work, French knots, and glass beads.

From a single scarlet cap to a sheltered pair, these pieces are small studies of the forest floor—quiet moments, just after the rain.

Set in 18k gold plated stainless steel and hand-finished wood.
