Jasmine Li's Embroidery

female Women-owned

Embroidery has been my passion for over eight years. I found it after trying out so many different hobbies, never being able to stick with anything, but with embroidery it finally clicked and I've been doing it almost every day since! I've sold my embroidery at craft fares, markets, and done dozens of custom commissions for people all over the world.
As well as being passionate about my hobby, I'm a qualified textiles teacher and have enjoyed sharing my skills with secondary school and A-Level Students and adults in private tutorials.
