Artist's Statement

Hi there! I'm Hannah, the crafting cartographer. My artwork is all about bringing maps to life through embroidery. I love turning lines and shapes of different places into something you can touch and feel. Each piece I make tells a story, whether it's a city you love, your favorite hiking route, or just a cool map that catches your eye.

My process? It's pretty simple: pick a map, play with colors, and get stitching. So, take a look around! Maybe you'll find a piece of the world that speaks to you. Happy travels through my stitched maps!
