Blue Stiggy

I’m Michaela, I’m a Textile Artist and Maker, working with textiles and hand stitching from my Lincolnshire Studio in the UK.

My work often uses typography and hand embroidery, I have a special partnership with my 1950’s baby Hermes typewriter (her name is Dorothy). Together we type personalised hand bound notebooks and make hand embroidery inspired by Dorothy.

As a maker it is important to me to be mindful of the impact my business has on the planet.  I consider carefully the materials I use,  wether that be  paper made from textile industry waste, or vintage linen threads and environmentally friendly packaging.
