Emma Louise Art Stitch was created by Emma Horan in 2014, almost accidentally...

Having re-located to Cornwall a few years previously I was inspired to create Acrylic Paintings of the beautiful Coast. Around this time I was also re-acquainted with Stitching as a therapeutic hobby and was on the hunt for more colorful, modern coastal scenes to stitch, that would look great on the wall. It made sense to try and combine the two, and try to stitch my paintings.

In 2021 I opened my NEW Studio / Shop in St Austell Town where I work from to design and manufacture Art Cross Stitch Kits which are now sold around the world .

I hope you enjoy stitching them as much as I love designing them. Happy Stitching ! Emma x

My Newest Design for @worldofcrossstitching is this Winter Beach Scene , It’s always a buzz seeing my designs in print and I so hope you enjoy it

@emma7_stitches has already stitched a finished version which will be on display in my St Austell Studio/shop soon but this design is only available exclusively in The World of Cross Stitch Magazine for the moment and should also be available at newsagents / supermarkets soon.

I think I have been sent my copy earlier than normal this month so don’t worry if you haven’t got yours yet.

If you do stitch this I would love to see your progress pics in the Facebook group

We have sprinkled the Christmas Magic everywhere and hope you enjoy!* ⭐️✨

A little twinkle of a blue and white snowy wonderland here in St Austell Town centre. It does look much better in person so do come and say hi if you can.

If you visit the shop from tomorrow until Tuesday there is a Black Friday SALE so you will get an extra 20% off the already lower prices in store and you get to help support a local business ! 🤩

The Big Black Friday SALE also goes live on my website tomorrow morning with limited stock and limited time this weekend and Cyber Monday. Which means I need to spend my evening discounting everything in my website and hope the scheduler works tomorrow🤞

Saturday Stitch Session is also on the weekend 12-2pm and I think we are pretty full. I have a couple of people that enquired this week but didn’t confirm seats, so do get back to me and check if you still interested.

*It’s just waiting for the Star on the top of the tree but that task is always completed by Tommy on Saturday during the town lights switch on and then I have to do it all again at home.🎄

It’s WIP Wednesday so here’s another Sneaky Peek of what I am working on…

A few of you asked for a matching ocean Needle Minder so I hope you like this very zoomed in close up of the Abstract Seahorse Design. This will be one of TWO new Needle Minders which should be available in the next few weeks.🤞

Some exciting dates to remember starting with the Big Yearly Black Friday Sale which drops online and in my St Austell Town Studio/Shop on Friday Morning… just 2 days!

There will not be a code and all prices will be lower online with stock limited to how many we have pre made at that point. Vistors to my shop can enjoy a huge 20% off the already lower prices in store. Good news If you are a Saturday Stitch Session attendee you can now get a big 25% off in-store with your attendance ticket for one day only!

Then the week after we should be able to release Path to Paradise on the 1st December with the two new Needle Minders available on the 8th December ..although none of either have been assembled yet so it’s dependent on everything going to plan and me spending less time faffing about with decorations! 😅 The shop is looking pretty magical already though ..🤗🎄

It’s started .. the Christmas Winter Wonderland

It’s started .. the Christmas Winter Wonderland is creeping into the Studio / Shop ! 🎄

It’s a little early but we needed some Christmas Cheer, so we turned up the Christmas songs and sorted out the decorations today. Apologies if you visited whilst it was chaos.

The window is now getting there but I haven’t started decorating the tree yet so it may be messy for a couple more days …If you wish to visit you can conveniently see the shop hours here on the door.

I have had a BIG Thread Card delivery so that I can ensure I have stock for all of your Christmas Gifts. I am also now in possession of the thread cards for the NEW Path To Paradise coming in a couple of weeks!🧵🪡

This is where I am today and in between meeting some lovely customers and editing and proof reading the charts for publication, I am also trying to find space to organise all the new stock. However, after pulling all of the boxes out of my store room and putting away one set I decided to sit down and write a social post instead ! Does anyone else get frustrated by organising when it seems
there is more to do? Luckily my studio assistant @sam_loves_stitching doesn’t mind so these may still be here to sort on Tuesday !🫣

As it’s been a while and it’s another dull, wet day here in Cornwall, let’s brighten it with some Thread Love ! 🧵❤️💙💜💛🌈

So here’s some happy, hope it works for you as well as me !

My palette 😁 🎨

A few people I meet say that collecting stash is as much of a hobby as actually stitching it so some colour to brighten up your Thursday ,scroll across . I have nearly ALL the threads Anchor /DMC / Janlynn / Kreinik. Plus a selection of large 500m Anchor Cones here and also 6 large boxes of over a thousand completed Thread Cards of my own kits .

My stash of Art Supplies , Pens , Pencils, paints etc.. is actually bigger than this! 🫣

I did promise a video on how I assemble my Christmas Baubles Cross Stitch Kits so here it is .

I have seen so many of these decorations made already and they all look fab. This is just to show how I show how I fix the felt backing on whilst also keeping a one square wide transparent plastic border.

There may well be easier ways to do this but this is just the way I figured out, feel free to share any tips on your finishes..👇

More info on the baubles can be found here:-

https://www.emmalouiseartstitch.co.uk/product/christmas-bauble-collection-3-x-cross-stitch-kit-boxes-and-matching-needle-minder/

I am loving seeing all the finishes of these and excited that they will be adorning lots of trees this year ! 😊

Came in to a flurry of online orders in the studio this morning .. I think Christmas Shopping season has started!

Just a note that gusts of wind have been blowing my door open today so I latched it shut as it was a pain to keep getting up and close it. This obviously confused a couple of customers so if the door doesn’t open when you push it and I fail to notice please just ring the bell, I am not purposefully ignoring you.

I have spent today updating the product choices and taking new photographs for my Gift Box selection which will enhance/replace the old gift boxes and these should be available tomorrow in plenty of time for Christmas Gifts.

Whilst Sam has been busy assembling lots of kits I had a little play with the front display and so a Christmas Wreath now invites a littler festive cheer .. I am looking forward to creating my little winter wonderland in here again in a few weeks time. 🎄

It’s been a bit full on this week so I really want to thank the customers that went out of their way to send me lovely feedback and share their stories. It’s always lovely to feel my work is appreciated and that you enjoy following my journey.

I think we now have one seat available for The Stitch Sessions this Saturday at 12 , so just message me to confirm your place. Emma

It’s WIP Wednesday so here’s of a sneaky peek of the next kit release.

Path to Paradise is based on a picture of Trevone Bay in Cornwall.

Admittedly a lot of you have seen the finished version of this one as it was first produced as a commission for World of Cross Stitch Magazine in April, but I know some of you were waiting eagerly for me to release the full Cross Stitch Kit. The good news is that you should be able to buy this on the 1st December🤞 the same day as eating your first advent chocolate.

Big thanks to @emma7_stitches for neatly and speedily Test Stitching this for me.

Still my most popular items in my webstore even though they don’t get as much promotion as my stitching is my Cornwall Colouring collection.

These always get more popular at this time of year and make great stocking fillers. You can use all types of product’s to colour these in including paint and alcohol markers. The St Ives postcard here was coloured just with the 12 pencils out of my little Branded Pencil Pot, a little bit of layering and you really don’t need many pencils at all.

You can find your own Calm and Creativity by getting your own Colour Cornwall Postcards and Colouring Book on the link below or pop into my St Austell Studio / Shop . You can get any 2 Colouring Items for only £10 (includes postcards, books and pencil pots ) and use it as many times as you want ! So that’s the gifts sorted 🎁
