Embroidery is a truly special art form, and Millie Amber managed to mix it up with other mediums and create something truly extraordinary along the way. She enjoys adding beads and other whimsical elements to her embroidery hoops, giving them a magical and dreamy feel.
A talented illustrator and textile artist from London, Amber got her degree in illustration from Arts University Bournemouth. She decided to utilize the power of social media to her advantage, building an impressive Instagram following, with a community of over 80,000 people around the world who admire her unique approach to embroidery.
Amber’s body of work explores romantic symbolism, folkloric motifs, and poetic narratives using a combination of contemporary and traditional techniques. She has a special interest in nature, folk art, and mythology, and her love for all things ethereal shines through every piece of embroidery she shares with the world.
Most embroidery artists stick to working with needle and thread, but this is not what Amber is best known for. Beads are her go-to material, and she enjoys using them to add a touch of dazzle and whimsy to her magical hoops, weaving them together into shapes and patterns that look straight out of this world.
