Once Upon A Stitch, based in Duvall WA, is a brand that embodies a lifelong passion for animals and art. With many years of experience, Once Upon A Stitch offers a wide range of designs, with animal designs being a significant part of their collection. The founder's journey began with pencil and pen & ink illustrations of animals, but their career took them to working with exotic animals and wildlife as a zookeeper and veterinary assistant.

Over time, their creative spirit led them back to illustration, and eventually to machine embroidery. Introduced to the world of digitizing by their mother, they began creating embroidery designs from their artwork. Trial and error led them to become proficient in digitizing, using programs like Origins and Generations, which they still use and occasionally teach.

Once Upon A Stitch is dedicated to providing high-quality embroidery designs and embraces the beauty of animals and art in their creations
