Hello! I’m Emillie, a self-taught artist who uses traditional embroidery methods to create contemporary embroidery patterns and hoop art.


 
 

PAINT WITH THREAD

 

Needlepainting is my preferred and most loved embroidery technique. You may know this method as long and short stitch, thread painting or silk shading. It is essentially a very free and non restrictive way to embroider. It is ideal for filling large surface areas of fabric, and it is essentially like painting on a canvas, but rather than using paint, you are using thread. I utilise this embroidery method within all of my embroideries as it is perfect for stitching natural forms.
