Designed by Eleonora Frey, Stitched with Heart
Every pillow starts with a conversation. For customized orders I work closely with you to design a piece that reflects your taste, home, and humor. Each one is handmade, using time-honored needlepoint techniques, natural fibers, and meticulous attention to detail, because slow-made is well-made.
From first sketch to final stitch, you’re part of the creative process.

We figured this out all virtually and I am so impressed what a perfect match color was. She was super attentive and had great communication. She also made recommendations that tied seamlessly with my own ideas."
