About SomethingStitches

 
 
 

My name is Christine and I love fiber art. Especially embroidery!

I was born and raised in Queens, NYC and lived there for the first 26 years of my life (except for when I attended School of Visual Arts in Manhattan, where I studied film.) I’ve since hauled my workshop and living space all the way to Brooklyn. 

I started embroidering in my senior year of high school…

…when I could not shake the image of an embroidered version of The Starry Night from my mind. It took over a year to complete, but when it was done, I had fallen in love with the craft.

Over ten years and countless

embroideries later, here I am.

I’ve since expanded my craft skillset to weaving, knitting, jewelry making, and paper crafting. But embroidery has, and always will be, my first love.

My day job as a video editor and animator funds my crafting addiction. You can find me around NYC finding the best food to eat, running with my running club, and trying to sort through my ever-growing pile of embroidery floss like a modern day textile-obsessed Sisyphus. 


Also I have a cat named Whiskey.

He has two brain cells and is so soft and sweet.
