After becoming a lettering artist, I began to wonder how type could translate to other media including hand embroidery. Since then, I’ve had a great time exploring letters in thread. Here are a few of my favorite projects.
LET’S MAKE SH*T
This lettering was originally created for my personal business cards, then found it's way onto a Limited Edition enamel pin. When I decided to test the waters of embroidering my hand lettering, this was the first piece I turned to. And it certainly didn't disappoint. The texture is captivating and the irony warms my heart.
SWEET DREAM PILLOW
This piece combines casual hand lettering, delicious embroidery textures and soft cozy fabrics to create a one-of-a-kind pillow that I just can’t stop looking at. I even made a DIY kit for others to create their own.
HOLIDAY, I’M POOR & PROVE
These were all different explorations in method, stitches and concept. They each hold a snarky place in my heart and I offer a couple as DIY kits over at Haute Wanda.
