Under the Sea Patterns from Sublime Stitching
We’ve seen a lot of traditional hand embroidery patterns here at Havel’s Sewing. We’re not knocking ’em, but we wanted fresh and contemporary patterns to apply to our current batch of bibs and onesies and tea towels (oh my!). We wanted to discover a life beyond the selection of leaves and scrolls and cupcake patterns we see every day. And we’re thrilled to find an embroidery world of mid-century modern lamps and mermaids! Jenny Hart from Sublime Stitching is a very talented embroidery artist who sells unique patterns, kits and embroidery supplies, as well as promotes hand embroidery as an art form.
Havel’s Sewing is also fond of Urban Threads. Here you can find featured artists who’ve designed patterns for the site, a blog and tutorials. Besides the large variety of contemporary hand embroidery patterns, Urban Threads also offers machine embroidery patterns. Just think of the crazy cool designs you can apply to hoodies and jeans, socks and scarves. Pillows and purses could also use a little embroidery love. Stitch your mark to make a statement!
