Enchanted Embroidery

ENCHANTED EMBROIDERY | The Stitched Art of Jenny Adin-Christie

Once upon a time, there was a truly remarkable artist who created the most extraordinarily beautiful needlework.
Jenny’s work has graced a king’s coronation, a cathedral, a royal bride and the album cover of a former Beatle.
With a career spanning nearly 25 years, she is celebrated as one of the world’s greatest hand embroidery artists,
designers and tutors.
Now, for the very first time, Jenny Adin-Christie is publishing a treasured collection of her work.
Nine masterpieces of stitched art, representing the epitome of hand embroidery, are presented in a publication
unlike anything you have seen before.
Jenny’s vision is to craft heirloom pieces with purpose, each telling its own special story.
These projects will beguile, enchant and delight your level of appreciation for what a visionary, pioneer, and true
artisan can achieve with a needle and thread.
