I’ll be adding it to my shop on Saturday, along with a few more one of a kind embroidered brooches and purses.

emotional heart brooches

These ‘emotional’ silk heart brooches are the latest edition to my etsy shop. They are made from hand-dyed dupion silk, and each features a different emotion, written freehand with the aid of my sewing machine. They’re embellished further with a few tiny hand stitches. To see more images and details click on any of the brooches below-

I was thrilled to discover that the ‘doom’ & ‘fear’* brooches I made, recently featured on Mr X Stitch the number one contemporary embroidery and needlecraft blog on the planet!

I’d love you to take a look and explore the site but first…

Warning! This site has X in the title for more than one reason! For adults only …and not for the easily offended!

Stitchgasm!

* ‘doom’ is now sold :-)

Available in my etsy shop now.
