Hello Embroidery World!

Welcome to my embroidery blog, where I will give you regular updates on my stitch-work.

Embroidery is probably one of the most beautiful art-forms, perhaps one of the oldest as well. It is almost hypnotic to watch the needle and thread dart in and out of fabric creating a pattern one stitch at a time. It also needs utmost patience and cannot be done in a hurry.

Most embroidery nowadays is done to decorate apparel. Machine embroidery has taken over, and how! However, there are those who still doggedly pursue hand-embroidery as an artform, to express themselves. This is the field I seek to explore. Somehow, art is one area where machines can never take over from humans. There is something artificial about the perfection of machines, don’t you think? This would make for an interesting discussion someday!

Although I love all forms of embroidery, the one that appeals to me most is needlepainting. Most of my work has been done using this technique and can be seen in the Gallery section of this website.

This blog gives me the platform to share my creative process and interact with fellow embroidery artists. Life is one journey of learning, and I look forward to learn and be inspired by all of you wonderful folks.

So until next time, take care and stay blessed!
