Hi, I am Sam Luxford Artist and creator behind the NaviStitch Brand. My NaviStitch work is created by hand-stitching on old navigation charts. I started the business in 2013, I was first inspired by a family that had been on holiday and stitched their road route onto an Ordinance Survey Map. Living on the coast and loving the water, I had old navigation charts to work with and instead of a road route, I stitched an anchor, compass, boat or other nautical inspired image.
This is where I developed my techniques for embroidery on paper. the business has evolved a lot in that time and is now run from my shop on Manningtree High Street, where I also have an exhibition and teaching space.
My own work has also evolved a great deal and I love to work with watercolours and collage. I then embroider into the created artwork. I have developed and currated a set of tools and materials that are a pleasure to work with when embroidering on paper. Until retalively recently I had been quite secrative about my techniques but decided that it's time to share the skills.
I have been teaching in my shop for the last year or so with great feedback from my students. I have also written two books based aound my workshops. The books are really a workshop in book format and I also offer a full materials pack alongside the book, eveything you need to create the project in the book, in a letterbox friendly kit.
I look forward to creating with you soon. Sam
