About the page author
“I’m Stephanie Roach, a blogger and embroidery needlewoman,” our heroine introduces. “I’ve been married six years, and two years ago we had a baby. An added bonus to my marriage is that we are a military family. This means that we’re moving a lot. For example, our last move has moved us from the Pacific Northwest to sunny Florida. These transfers often mean that you can try something new on a regular basis, and we can live a life connected with different places of the world " .

What is this page about
According to Stephanie, who embroiders a lot, including performing custom work, her last idea is connected precisely with the nature of Florida, which she was very inspired after moving. The plan is this: to create a collection of 100 embroideries ranging in size from 9 to 20 cm. All works will be devoted to flora and fauna: "this collection will have 32 birds, 19 insects, 22 mammals, 13 plants and 14 reptiles / amphibians."According to Stephanie, many of the works are already pre-ordered, and she cannot allow people to wait too long. Therefore, our heroine set a goal: to carry out 10 embroideries per collection monthly. How is it going, you can follow on her page on Instagram. By the way, there are many other, earlier works that were completed before that and also most often in one way or another related to the theme of nature.
Stephanie herself is completely delighted with her ideas. “Finally, I have a project that I'm in love with!” She exclaims. “God, so much time has passed to reach this point of full satisfaction with my work. Now I understand that I really like to repeat what is drawn with the help of a thread "The rest began to feel like not quite sincere, like something that I was trying to force myself to do."
