Amazed by these CMYK embroideries created by London-based graphic designer, Evelin Kasikov, who “uses typography, grid systerms and design techniques to challenge the preconceptions of embroidery”.

These woven accessories were created byJapanese hand weaver and textile artist, Harue Nishikawa, in her studio Textile Cocoon. She designs, drafts, dyes and weaves all the articles herself and describes her work rightfully as simple, rustic and sophisticated.

Aconit Napel
Coveting these bags created by French designer Delphine Dunoyer sold under the brand name, Aconit Napel. Love the fact that it’s a clutch with both sides fully covered in idyllic cross stitch scenes. Bags are available at Big Cartel under Atelier Beau Travail, a workshop she shares with two other designers.

Deryn Relph
Retro influences are evident in these furnishings and home accessories created by British textile designer, Deryn Relph. The look is definitely ‘quirky, colorful and fun’ as the designer herself has described.

Johan Lindstén
Contemporary meets traditional in these series of chairs depicting idyllic Swedish landscape created by designer, Johan Lindstén. Truly a great way to elevate the time-honored but neglected craft of cross-stitching.
