Emily Wall started hand embroidery in 2021 and very quickly fell in love with how versatile and relaxing it was. She is entirely self-taught and loves that hand embroidery is something you can teach yourself at a pace that feels comfortable for you. She enjoys coming up with silly and fun designs with the aim of making people smile, and she is a firm advocate in the philosophy of "stitch what makes you happy." Whilst she mostly focuses on creating patterns and tutorials for fans to stitch, this is her first foray into book publishing.
