What is my artistic process?

  1. Design Conception: I create the initial map design, focusing on accurate layout and the appropriate level of detail for the project.
  2. Transferring the Design: The finalized design is printed onto fabric using washable ink, allowing for easy removal post-embroidery.
  3. Selection of Stitches and Colors: I select stitches and colors that best enhance the map's geographical and thematic details.
  4. Embroidery Execution: The most exciting and time consuming step in the process is actually stitching!
  5. Finishing and Presentation: The finished piece is either framed or stretched into an embroidery hoop, tailored to suit the project.

How do I set prices?

  • Prices are determined by size and stitch difficulty.
  • Stitches have different levels of complexity - more complex stitches take more time and will cost more.
  • Some stitches also take much more embroidery thread.
  • More stitches generally cost more.
  • If a piece is framed I add the cost of the frame to the final piece, frames are usually between $10-$30.
  • Custom pieces will cost more.

Price Points

  • 3-4 inch diameter pieces will generally be between $30-$50.
  • 5-7 diameter inch pieces will generally be between $60-$90.
  • 8x10 inch pieces will generally be between $100-$150.

Frame or Hoop?

  • Most of the frame products can be sold framed or unframed. If you would like a different frame please fill out the contact form.
  • If a piece is displayed in a hoop, it can not be changed to a frame. And the hoop cannot be changed (this incudes painting the hoop)

What if an item is out of stock?

I can always remake a design that is no longer in stock. Please note because these are handmade no two products will be exactly the same. If a product is out of stock it will take 2-4 weeks to make and ship to you.

How to should I take care of my piece?

  • Hoops can be hung on the wall using just a nail.
  • For cleaning, do not ever wet the piece, just dust lightly.
