Bringing beauty to the everyday
Butterworth & Co creates handmade embroidered goods for the home—pieces designed to be used, lived with, and kept. Each item is thoughtfully made by hand, combining traditional embroidery techniques with a modern sensibility and a respect for craftsmanship.
Our work is inspired by the idea that everyday objects should earn their place: useful first, beautiful always. Everything we make is created in small batches, with care, intention, and an eye for detail that mass production simply can’t match.
About me
I came to embroidery as an adult, drawn to the calm, focus, and quiet satisfaction of making something by hand in a world that moves far too fast.
What began as curiosity quickly became a love for the process itself—the patience of each stitch, the rhythm of slow work, and the way traditional techniques reward care and attention. I’m inspired by historic craft traditions, but I don’t treat them as relics. I enjoy reworking them through a modern lens, creating pieces that feel relevant, useful, and at home in contemporary spaces.
Hand embroidery forces you to slow down. You can’t rush it, automate it, or fake it—and that’s the point. Every piece takes time, and that time shows in the detail, texture, and character of the finished work.
Butterworth & Co exists to celebrate that slowness: handmade objects for the home that respect tradition, embrace modern aesthetics, and are made to be used, not just admired.
