hello! I’m Sarah and I create the cross stitch, blackwork and embroidery on these pages.

I’ve loved cross stitch since I was a little girl and have often picked it up as a stress relief whenever I needed it. In 2016 I had my first little girl and finally finished a cross stitch quilt project I’d been picking up and putting down for a few years. This motivated me to want a new project and coincided with my brothers wedding. I created the first StitchFabulous work as a gift for him and his husband.

And the story of Stitchfabulous began.

Since then I’ve made more wedding portraits than I can count. Some small, some big, some framed, some not. All unique and made from the heart to celebrate a couples special days.

And it didn’t stop there…. I started creating my ‘then and now’ hoops to show how families evolve from the wedding day. Also, family portraits in the same style as the wedding couple portraits. Realising people also want to make these themselves I now also stock the options for kits and custom made patterns. It then makes a truly personalised special gift.

As I created more I wanted to expand my stitching. This led to my love for blackwork. Blackwork is a counted stitch just like cross stitch - My ordered mind loves the rhythm of these stitches. I create patterns and kits so that others can share the joy of this less well know stitching technique.

I hope you find something that sparks your imagination while exploring these pages :)

Happy stitching!
