*** As seen on Good Morning America, The Knot, Better Homes & Garden and Magnolia *** Hello! I'm Colleen, the business owner and artist behind And Other Adventures Embroidery Co. At And Other Adventures, our main goal is to teach you how to hand embroider, while taking a bit of time for yourself in an otherwise busy day. Our kits provide you with all the materials, instructions and videos you need to create something beautiful. After 15 years in IT & e-commerce, I decided to switch gears and open this small business as a way to slow down and enjoy the more creative side of life, while also enjoying all the aspects of launching and growing a small business. I began embroidering when I was a little girl and I love that I now get to share this timeless and cross-cultural art of embroidery to everyone else. I truly love this job of mine and I'm excited to continue to expand it in the future!

How + Why Quince & Co. was launched in 2010 by handknitting designer Pam Allen in partnership with a historic mill in Maine. Pam set out to delight and inspire knitters with materials of integrity and beauty. Before starting Quince & Co., as Creative Director at a large handknitting yarn company, Pam found that the traditional way that yarn companies produce new yarns—going to trade shows and choosing from yarns designed by spinning mills—was unsatisfying and ultimately did not yield the yarns she desired. She wanted to work with mills to design yarns from the ground up. Pam was also frustrated by how difficult it was to have yarns made in the US, where there was once a venerable textile tradition. Pam recruited fellow designer and yarnophile Carrie Bostick Hoge and, together with inventive and resourceful folks at spinning mills around the northeast, they created a line of classic, beautiful yarns from wool sourced and spun in the US. With those yarns they designed a line of modern knitting patterns for sweaters and accessories lovely in their simplicity, which echoed the “thoughtful essentials” nature of the yarn. Since then, Quince has grown its offerings well beyond its core wool yarns and a few patterns, while maintaining the dedication to quality, history, and the modern, clean aesthetic that started it all.

Why I do what I do These samplers provide contemporary viewers rare insights into the past. They tell a story about their life. Their daily life, matters of importance and beliefs. If you would like to discover their past, you may want to check the blog for some of the completed histories at this time. Bringing these young girls' needlework and histories to you to stitch is an honor. Seeing a beautiful sampler like Jane's (to the left) most likely embroidered at a very young age, in such poor condition breaks my heart. The love and time to cross-stitch this, and now almost destroyed. I am so grateful to my ancestors that started me on this path with my great grandmother's sampler (Olga Spindler you’ll find her in the sampler section) All the samplers in my collection are like my “daughters” – they are cherished. Knowing you share the same love for them brings such joy! I cannot count my day complete 'Til needle, thread and fabric meet. Have a magnificent day Birgit

It actually wasn’t too long ago that I crocheted my first plushie. I wanted to make a handmade gift for a friend, and I’m not gonna lie. It was hard. I didn’t know what I didn’t know. I spent weeks piecing together YouTube videos, diagrams, and crochet blogs. I tried to rejigger what I found to fit what I was working on. I made a lot of mistakes. And I did a lot more of hoping for the best. All I could think was - what’s a girl gotta do to crochet a cute penguin, goshyarnit?! And that’s why we made The Woobles - to give beginners like you the easiest way to learn crochet. But The Woobles is actually about more than just crochet. It’s about proving to yourself that you can always learn something new. Changing how you see yourself and your potential to grow. And building the confidence that you can take on whatever comes your way. So come wooble with us! We can’t wait.

Stitching entered my life after the birth of my son as I was looking for a way to slow down, connect with my hands and reduce anxiety. I had always found peace through art but I found that the slow, meditative and tactile experience of using needle and thread to create beauty was especially satisfying. Plus, tossing a hoop and thread in the diaper bag for some stitching at the park proved easier than packing an easel and oil paints. My goal is for my students to find the same joy and relaxation that I find when I am creating art through hand embroidery. I also hope that they have a lot of fun! What inspires me In college I wanted to be a natural science illustrator. Ultimately, I began a more traditional career working in a biotech lab but my love of our natural world never faded. My doodles and paintings always heavily featured flora and fauna, and I never passed up an opportunity to visit a natural history museum or zoo. Thanks to life’s many surprises I have become a full-time hand embroidery instructor and pattern designer. And now I can draw (and then stitch) all of my favorite creatures! So somehow my two loves have magically merged and so I delightfully present to you a library hand embroidery patterns inspired by our natural world.

The creation of Marvling Bros is a story that began in 2010 with two mums at the school gates of a sleepy surburban primary school in Essex… In 2010 the head mistress of the school held a competition for the pupils. The task seemed straightforward and simple enough: How much can you fit in a matchbox? Hayley’s seven-year-old son was not enthused by idea, but Hayley entered for him and came up with all sorts of objects that not only fitted in the matchbox but fulfilled a concept too. For example, a grain of rice and a coriander seed which she labelled ‘curry takeaway’, and a picture of the Mona Lisa and Van Gogh’s Sunflowers became a miniature art gallery. She did not win the competition, and most people thought it was mad, but one other person at the school totally got it - Emma. Two years later, Emma, inspired by the matchboxes, (and having just offloaded her youngest child at school) thought the concept could be the basis for a business and for nine months she and Hayley beavered away researching products, developing ideas and learning how to run an ecommerce company. They launched in July 2013 with an ecommerce website and 12 different product designs. In the first week they sold exactly ten matchboxes, half of those to people they knew. Not the big hit they were hoping for. However, by their first Christmas, they were flying out of the door. In the last eight years the business has gone from strength to strength, while keeping the company ethos - to provide inspiration

We're New York times Wirecutter Pick!!! Founded by embroidery artist Laurie Dolhan in 2017, Hook, Line & Tinker embraces creative imperfection and the pure joy of making. We are a busy small-batch, craft production studio designing and selling fabulous, modern embroidery kits. Care for people, respect for the environment, and a deep desire to create something meaningful and real through a shared act of making, are principles firmly embedded into every aspect of our business. Lots of love goes into each and every kit - so we only produce in small batches in our home-based studio. The coffee is always excellent and the music, or a podcast, is almost always on. Each piece of preprinted, 100% cotton fabric is cut by hand. We print our own fabric using a very fancy Mimaki TX300P-1800 fabric printer. (AKA, "The Beast") All our patterns are highly unique originals designed by Laurie Dolhan. The limited colour palette and use of recurring motifs is purposeful - finished hoops hang well as mix-and-match groupings and tell a cohesive story within a theme. Some patterns are easy-peasy first time friendly, others are for ambitious beginners. But all allow for creativity, experimentation, and of course...calm. We wholly support selling online.

A printmaking graduate from the Ontario College of Art and Design, Michelle Galletta started Kiriki Press after she wanted to make her niece an embroidered doll but couldn't find a pattern anywhere. "I couldn’t afford to buy her anything, but I hoped to make up for it with my time. I decided to learn how to embroider so I could make her a set of three owl dolls to play with. It was difficult to find contemporary embroidery patterns that weren’t overly simplistic, let alone embroidered doll patterns, so I ended up designing my own. As I was making Madeleine’s owls, I became fascinated with embroidery: the vibrant colours, the countless variety of stitches, the calming effect it had on me... ...after several years of improving my embroidery skills - and a ton of design work - Kiriki Press was born. It was developed in the hopes of giving others the chance to make something precious with their own hands." Kiriki Press was launched in 2013 with seven patterns, and the collection has grown over the years and is currently expanding to include a range of other DIY products. Michelle was chosen as a Featured Seller on Etsy, and has been a contributor for Mollie Makes books and magazine. The company has been featured in Uppercase, Canadian Living, Chatelaine, Bust Magazine, Homespun, as well as many other print publications and craft blogs.

For a long time my family included a green and yellow parakeet (or budgie, as the Brits call them). Crazy little Clarence overflowed with tuneful exuberance just about every waking moment, and tended to come a little bit unhinged when he got excited about something – exactly how I feel every time I start a new craft project. I’ve always loved hand stitching. The fabrics, the floss colors, the endless design possibilities – and the incredible cultural and historic significance of this timeless craft. I was always disappointed with the selection of ready-to-make kits available in craft stores, so I spent a lot of time and energy creating designs on my own. I found myself thinking about all the people who would love embroidery and cross stitch, if only they could find a kit that spoke to them. That was the beginning of budgiegoods! Way back in 2011, I set out to create modern, simple needlework kits that would encourage people who had never stitched before to pick up a needle and floss and create something beautiful. Today, budgiegoods offers a series of embroidery and cross stitch kits created in collaboration with two of my favorite artists, Lisa Congdon and Lori Roberts. Though their work is very different, both have a thoughtful style influenced by the natural world and their own unique perspectives. Stitchers of all experience levels can find something to get excited about from budgiegoods. These kits make my heart sing – and I think your customers will love them too!
