About

Ciao, I'm Katie! I started embroidery as a fun and creative way to unwind once my young kids had gone to bed. Soon after, I was hand embroidering 100 personalised napkins for a wedding (each one with something special to the guest)- little did I know what I'd gotten myself into! I learnt so much along the way, but mostly how enjoyable it was to create something fun, unique, and meaningful. Hearing of everyone's reaction to their personalised napkin was wonderful! 

Ciccia (pronounced 'tchi-tcha')- is a sweet way of saying 'chubby', also an affectionate way of referring to a loved one in Italian. Finally, it's a diminutive of Francesca, my daughter's name :)
