About

Hello there! I’m Julie: obsessive needlecrafter at large.

Over the past ten years, I’ve picked up one type of thread or yarn after another and loved them all – I’ve come to think of myself as a needleworker rather than a lover of any specific craft. But my love of stitching by hand comes above all, especially hand-pieced patchwork, embroidery and, most recently, handmade bobbin lace. Machines are useful, but working by hand wins every time. I hope you’ll stick around and stitch with me, and join in my love of vintage style, traditional needlework techniques, and the history of needlecraft.

I’m an American currently living in the UK with my family and a giant cat, doing my best to spread my needlecrafting love all over the internets.
