Lately, I get my inspiration out of nature. I also love organized collections and collections in general. A collection shows the beauty of a certain object. I like the simplicity and the clean look.

What got you started crafting?

As long as I can remember, I've been drawing and crocheting. I also used to make a lot of cross stitch embroideries. Sewing on the other hand, is a very recent craft. Ever since I've got my sewing machine, I've been learning more crafts in a very rapid time. I prefer to mix them all together. My goal is to turn my illustrations into embroideries, so I can make products out of them. I want an illustration to be more than just a print, I want it to be something useful. Crafting will always be an important part of my life. I'd craft all day long if I could.

What have you made recently?

I started my first collection, the LEAF collection, inspired by nature and the beautiful shapes of leaves. In this collection, I embroidered leaves and tried to make interesting compositions. I mainly made pouches, purses and handbags, but I still have more plans. Everything is done by hand and the leaves and stitches give it a fun touch to it.





Where do you sell your crafts presently?

Through my blog and Facebook, I receive custom orders. I love these type of orders, it always gives an extra challenge and I love making something very personal. But I run a webshop at Etsy as well.
