About

Welcome to Stitch Happily!

I’m Kathryn Van Auken and I created Stitch Happily to offer tutorials, kits and embroidery designs for people who want to explore their creativity through needle and thread. Hand embroidery is an ancient art form that is accessible and incredibly versatile.

My mission here is to make hand embroidery fun and accessible for everyone. If you’re having fun and you like your results, then go for it! Forget the “embroidery police” and worrying about perfection. Stitch Happily!
