Your teacher
Hi, I’m Katie, an embroidery designer and maker based in London. I run Tired Starling Studio, where I create modern embroidery kits, hand-painted candles, and greeting cards, and host creative workshops.I’ve been stitching since 2016 and teaching since 2019. My workshops are all about slowing down, trying something new, and enjoying the process. No experience needed. Whether you’re looking for a mindful way to unwind or just want a fun, welcoming space to get creative, you’re in the right place.When I’m not running workshops, you’ll find me designing new kits, painting candles, or working on exciting creative projects. I’d love for you to join me at a session and see why embroidery has been my favourite craft for nearly a decade.Connect with me on Instagram: @tired_starling_studio
