Debs Tangled Stitches

Welcome to my Go Imagine Shop. I am a hand embroidery artist/fiber artist. I have been hand embroidering almost all of my life since my grandmother taught me when I was five years old. I started selling my work in brick and mortar stores and craft fairs for 30 years ago. I make hand embroidered pillows and ornaments which I hand draw and hand embroider. Because I hand draw all my embroidery work all of my pieces are one of a kind. Twenty years ago I moved to upstate NY and found my inner artist.  I belong to an artist coop  I’ve done craft fair and have had my work in several stores, I have been featured in several group shows and have had my work exhibited in a local library.  I opened an Etsy shop 2012.

All of my work is hand drawn and hand embroidered. I love color and texture organically using them to make unique designs. I start with simple designs and then let my needles do the work for me. It is not unusual for them to take on a life of their own while I am working on them. My favorite pieces are my Tangled stitch designs where I find a color and then I just look for the perfect place to add it. They are always colorful and textured and I get lost in them. I make custom pillows and ornaments, and framed pieces using traditional and primitive stitching. I am known for my ornaments in which I use lots of my favorite stitches the French knot. People buy them and give them as gifts year after year because the majority of them are made for year round display. I also do custom orders and finish projects that are left undone by those who have passed on and are unable to finish that cherished heirloom. If you have any interest in either please feel free to inquire for a free estimate. I hope you enjoy my work and would like to add some of my one of a kind pieces to your collection.
