About Paloma Stitch

Paloma Stitch runs beginner to experienced-level handstitch embroidery, cross stitch & tapestry workshops for groups and individuals. Based in West London but available across the UK, workshops can take place anywhere with comfortable seating and natural light.

Founder Amelia has been an avid stitcher for the past 22 years since her eldest (of three!) daughters was born. She has moved through stitching cosy tapestry Christmas stockings and cushion covers through to cross-stitch designs for newlyweds, birthday gifts, new babies and graduations. Amelia’s works have been hung on walls, sit on mantlepieces, used as beautiful napkins and even pillow cases and she is now delighted to share the joy of stitching itself and her love of these beautiful and often-neglected crafts.

2025 Customer Workshop Reviews

Many thanks for a most enjoyable, fun and well organised embroidery workshop. It was my first time embroidering and after just a couple of hours I feel like I can start to do it! Your designs are exquisite and I can’t wait to do more workshops with you!

We had such a beautiful time yesterday at @paloma_stitch's beginner's embroidery workshop. Amelia is the most fun, patient, gentle and overall amazing teacher and I can't wait to do more fun workshops with her! I'm in love!

Side note, I was so obsessed after the workshop, I attempted to finish my chain stitch apple that very evening!

The paloma stitch workshop was the most incredible tonic for busy London life. Amelia created such a warm and welcoming space where I felt completely comfortable to learn, ask questions, and explore embroidery. I came away not only with new skills but also with so much inspiration from her passion and encouragement. I left feeling empowered and ready to keep stitching at home, thank you for such a lovely experience!
