Embroidery is for everyone
At Love Embroidery, we want inclusivity to be at the heart of what we do. We’re committed to creating content that reflects and celebrates the diversity of the stitching community. Embroidery is for everyone, regardless of ethnicity, age, size, ability, sexual orientation or gender identity. We have begun work on a plan to drive meaningful change, but we know it’s a work in progress. We want to listen to you, our readers.
