Benning’s Embroidery Pieces Are Quite Delightful"},"content":{"rendered":"\n

Sarah K. Benning started stitching as a hobby, while she nannied. This hobby soon grew into a studio practice and then business. \u201cAt first, I was making hand-stitched greeting cards for friends and family,\u201d she recalled in an interview with Bluprint. \u201cThey encouraged me to get more serious and sell my work, so in 2013 I opened an Etsy shop to sell the cards. Then I began experimenting with the hoop pieces \u2014 I sold a lot of them, but they were really time-intensive to make.\u201d \n\n\n\n

Being a one-woman show, her work indeed takes much time and effort, with each of her pieces carefully hand-stitched, packaged, and shipped by her. Splitting her time between creating one of a kind originals and teaching creative workshops, her work takes her out on the road quite often. \n\n\n\n
