My Bio
Emma is the owner and chief stitcher behind Emma Easter Handcrafted (Easterkins Ltd). Emma started sewing as a hobby, a way to keep busy during the long, cold and often wet Welsh winter nights. Little did she know that it would soon become a business and that her one basic sewing machine would grow to include an Overlocker, Coverstitch and later an embroidery machine and finally an industrial walking foot machine.
Emma has previously worked with a local charity supporting individuals with disabilities, learning difficulties and health conditions to find and maintain paid employment. Emma is passionate about raising the profile of Dyscalculia, a learning difficulty the Emma has herself! It affects the ability to work with and process numbers, with dyscalulics often doubting their abilities and answers even if they’re right!
When Emma isn’t sewing or embroidering, she loves being out walking with her dog Lilly and usually has a camera too!
