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

Hola!!
Hope you’re having a great start to your week.
I want to remind you of the Intro to Needle Painting course that I’ll be offering at the studio this month.
Needle painting is a hand embroidery technique that uses long and short stitches to blend colors and create a painted effect.
I love using this technique to create flowers, animals and anatomical patterns.
This is a 3 session course and each session is 3 hours long. You can take the complete course or get a brief introduction with 1 session (although, I do recommend that you invest and take the 3 sessions for better practice).
The subjects we’ll be discussing are:
1. Color Theory: Selecting and transitioning shades to create depth, light, and shadow.
2. Stitch Fundamentals: Mastering the “long and short” and split stitch to blend colors seamlessly.
3. Directional Stitching: Following the natural form of the subject to create realistic textures.
4. Pattern selection and Transferring Designs: Techniques for bringing patterns onto fabric.
5. Finishing: Techniques for framing or mounting completed embroidery pieces.
Intro to Needle Painting at the @stitchhouse915 studio

This one goes for my mom:
Se que no fue fácil, y se que tuviste que aprender a ser mamá cuando todavía eras una niña.
Se que te perdiste de muchas experiencias que te correspondía vivir como mujer joven y son innumerables los sacrificios que tuviste que hace por mi y por todos mis hermanos.
Pero has sido una gran mamá!! Imperfectamente perfecta💕
Te amo con todo mi corazón y le pido mucho a Dios que nos deje vivir muchos más años para poder experimentar muchas otras cosas de la mano como madre e hija y ahora todas unas señoras.
Te amo mamá @mi.luchi
Feliz fin de semana de las madres México-Americanas 💕

CuchicuChismes update this past weekend, upcoming events for Mother’s Day weekend and more💕🪡💕 ...
A year ago I opened the CushiCushi 915 studio with one goal in mind: help you learn to embroider and forget about the world for at least a few hours.
I understand firsthand how overwhelming and uncertain life can be sometimes, and I really wanted to share not only the skills, but also the benefits of crafting to improve your wellbeing.
Life can be hard and lonely sometimes, and I know the yearn to meet people in a calm and peaceful environment. This is why I envisioned the studio/shop to be a crafting place that reminded us all of our abuelitas living rooms, dining rooms or kitchen tables.
I wanted to bring back a little bit of the nostalgia from the times we seated with them to make something, or even just to do homework. There was no cell phones, except maybe just some music or the telenovela playing in the background. We were so rich and we didn’t even realize it.
Thank you to all of you for your support to this dream and for becoming part of this amazing community of makers and dreamers!
Thank you to my husband @dice_druid and my kiddos Ana & Mateo, because they have believed in me sometimes even more than I believed in myself.
To my family, my mom @mi.luchi, my suegro, all my brothers and sisters in law, my prima/comaye @jackeline.pineda.12, my nieces and nephews, and my incredible besties @dr_joseyp, @bbleffler, and @ivanooze915 who have never stopped supporting me and my art🫶🏽
And super special thanks to my friend/partner @_sc_gram__ from @vibras_bonitas_915 for joining me in this adventure of providing a bigger space and a better learning/shopping experience for our community to create and enjoy.
And thank you to all of you!!
For every opportunity.
For every single like, share, repost, class, private event, collab, market, art exhibit and more.
You have made it all happen and I’ll never forget it💕
The studio is now housed under the @stitchhouse915 along side @vibras_bonitas_915
Together, we want you to create and make beyond your and our own imaginations!!🙌
Muchísimas gracias y los wacho soon!!!
Con mucho cariño, Lizbeth
AKA CushiCushi915 🥰🪡❤️

Puebla is a major city in central Mexico, located about 80 miles (130 km) southeast of Mexico City and is also a prominent Mexican center of pottery production that employs the technique of tin-enameled earthenware, known in Europe as maiolica.
This technique produces a hard opaque white glaze, which serves as a background for colorful, enamel-painted designs. The name Talavera alludes to the city of Talavera de la Reina, the major producer of colorful maiolica in Spain from the sixteenth to the mid-eighteenth century.
In this hand embroidery workshop, we’ll be stitching a pattern inspired in Talavera ceramic pottery.
🪡 Option 1: Friday May 8th, Talavera Heart Embroidery, from 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM
🪡 Option 2: Saturday May 16th, Talavera Heart Embroidery, from 11:00 AM - 3:00 PM.
🪡 Option 3: Saturday May 23rd, Talavera ANATOMICAL Heart Embroidery, from 11:00 AM - 3:00 PM
Location: Digital Classroom
Ages 15+
Please visit @elpasomacc for more info and registrations.

Are you ready El Paso?👀
I’m a little scared of next weekend tbh, but am also really excited with all the amazing events happening in our community 🙌🤩🙌
Y si de plano you’re not looking forward to any of these events, mejor quédese encerrado en su casa because it will be a beautiful and probably not a very organized chaos, specially around central EP.
Like I said, nervous but excited with the opportunity to be extra welcoming to everyone visiting us from anywhere to see BTS, or Bomba, or Juanes or those coming to check the EP Comic Con.
Sera un fin de semana de alegre desmadre🙌🙌🙌🙌
PS. If you’re an ARMY from EP, here’s a little gift for you. You have like 4 days to stitch your shirt 😉
Ánimo and let’s goooooo!!
Los wacho soon!

Reading is so sooting for me 📚🥰
It’s what I love to do before going to bed.
Along with hand embroidery, is the other way I get to disconnect from the noise of the world.
That’s why I love creating bookmarks.
To me they’re something very special to own.
I created this new batch of vintage hand embroidered bookmarks and you can find them this weekend at @lasartistasshow inside the @imoaep
P.S. we’re planning a Bookclub at the @stitchhouse915 for those of us that love textiles and books, so stay tuned😉
And btw, my current reading is “Art Cure”, by Daisy Fancourt.
If you feel like sharing, let me know what you’re reading in the comments👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽
Los wacho this weekend!!

Hola!!
We’re getting ready for our upcoming events so that means a lot of stitching has been going on🪡💪🏽
I wanted to share with you how I erase embroidery marks on my minis.
To trace and draw on fabric, I like using a Frixion Heat Erasable Pen rather than anything else. Is affordable, not messy and super easy to use.
Once you finished stitching, you grab a hair dryer, turn on the lowest setting and start passing it over your embroidery. Be careful to not stay too long, specially if you used synthetic threads.
Mini embroidery is a great way to practice those skills without feeling too overwhelmed with the size of the project. Just be mindful of the quantity and quality of the thread you want to use and how much experience you have handling it.
Remember that these next weekends we will be around town, so come and say hi!!!
See you at @lasartistasshow or at @lavinawinery with @vibras_bonitas_915 and the @stitchhouse915
Ahi los wachamos!!!

Tonantzin v.10
Created with needle painting, hand beading, crewel and metallic embroidery.
I’m missing the stars, but I already love how it looks without them (pero si se las voy a poner, ok?!)
It’s always challenging but also super fun to create fiber art with different embroidery techniques and textures.
Happy & creative Sunday my friends!!
