Embroidery & Art

Every stitch starts with an artist.

Every LACE design begins as an artist's drawing, researched for its meaning and translated into thread. Nothing is pulled from a stock library.

Our promise

Art first, then thread

Before a needle touches fabric, a piece starts as an idea. We work with independent artists who develop the concept and artwork behind every design we stitch, so what ends up on the fabric began as something someone drew, not something pulled from a stock library.

Drawn by hand

Every motif starts on paper, drawn by an artist, then tuned for embroidery so the detail holds in thread.

Researched for meaning

Each symbol, pattern and placement is traced to its origin, so you wear a story, not just a design.

Gideon Sagar

Artist spotlight · Everest Edition

Gideon Sagar

"The Everest Edition began with pencil on paper, born from a desire to capture the mountain's raw, timeless presence. I wanted to move away from flat, computerized graphics and create something organic, where every line carries the weight, shadow, and quiet grandeur of the actual peaks."

Artist spotlight · Cowboy Edition

Bipul

"The Cowboy Edition began with the feeling of choosing your own road. I wanted the whole frontier in one frame: the saloon at the edge of town, red mesas, a windmill in the heat and a rider heading into the unknown. I worked in the tones of dust and desert so that, in thread, it would feel weathered and alive. Seeing it come back as more than 55,000 stitches was the moment the journey felt real."
