About Me
I started hand embroidering gifts for friends and family.
Honestly, they were pretty bad, but they help me practice and practice and eventually get better with the craft.
Throughout this exploration process, I fell in love with the possibilities of the thread and the needle and started to create more elaborated designs, mixing with acrylic or watercolor painting, beading, appliqués or felt patches from time to time.
Currently I do commission works and teach workshops around my community
If you want to learn more about my journey and my art, see my complete “About Me” page.

Today is World Mental Health Day🧠
It’s very important to understand that mental health affects our everyday lives because it determines how we think, feel and act.
It has a deep impact in our ability to relate with others, in our coping mechanisms, our resilience, our productivity and much more.
When people ask me why I embroider I always tell them: “is the therapy I can afford” and it’s true.
I grabbed the needle, thread and fabric at a very uncertain and painful time of my life, and it kept me alive.
Hand embroidery has been an outlet not only to create, but it also helps me get to a state very similar to meditation.
It helps me focus and stay present in the here and now.
My own experience with this craft has been nothing but beneficial, so if you’re craving something to help you get rid of any stressors (at least for a few hours) pick up a craft: paint, stitch, knit, crochet, draw, bake, learn to macrame or simply grab that box full of family pictures and start making scrapbooking or collages.
Crafting is not exclusive to childhood, it’s there and exists for all of us to be enjoyed anytime.
So put down the phone and create something 😉
