Who are Charles and Elin ?
We are a French/Swedish married artist couple who are passionate about spreading the joy and relaxation of creating with your hands.
We fused our skills in drawing and embroidery, which quickly gained large attention with features in magazines such as Bored Panda, Flow, Inspirations and My Modern Met as well as hundreds of thousands of embroidery enthusiasts spread across Instagram , Pinterest and YouTube.
In addition to working with companies such as Hermès, Pinterest and Amazon we have also taught thousands of students our take on modern hand embroidery via our patterns and online courses.
In September 2020 we published our first book
