Welcome to Samantha Jane Embroidery…

Hi there! I’m Sam, mum to a teenager and hand embroidery artist, living by the sea in Scarborough, North Yorkshire!

I found embroidery when I wanted something one of a kind that I couldn’t find anywhere else and I am so happy that I can now help you do the same!

I have been stitching since 2018, a lockdown hobby turned full time job! Hand embroidery is my way of relaxing. The repetition of the stitches is theraputic to me and I love that I can make something so unique every time! I enjoy the challenge of starting from scratch and not knowing how a piece will turn out!

I love that I can help you create a beautiful keepsake gift for your loved ones. I may make the art, but the ideas come from you! You know what your loved ones will appreciate and how to make them feel special, I just capture these ideas in the form of hand embroidery!

Thank you for visiting and if you’d like to see more of my embroidery journey, please head to my social media and give me a follow!

How To Order

For custom orders, photos are always a massive help!

For pet portraits, a clear, high quality photo will ensure the best results. Outdoor photos give the best lighting. I will be matching the colours of thread to the photo so please make sure it shows off the most accurate colourings of your pet. Your embroidery will pretty much be exactly the same as the photo you send.

For wedding portraits, I will need to know the style and colours of their outfits, skin colourings and hair colours (photos are a massive help so I can match these as closely as possible), hair styles, with or without a veil, colours and flowers in the bouquet, name, date or any other wording and the colour of the border you would like.

Sizes are available from 3 inch hoop frames to 12 inch hoop frames. Prices will vary depending on the size and detail of your design. Before ordering I will confirm a timeframe in which your custom design will be completed and posted out to you. Once ordered, I will draw up a digital design for your approval and I will keep in touch throughout your creation to make sure you are happy with the progress.

FAQ: How much time do they take to make?

Every hoop varies, obviously the smaller the design the less time it will take, whereas the bigger the design and more detail, the more time it will take.
