About the Author
Beth Hoyes is an embroidery artist and art therapist. Originally from the United Kingdom and now based in Denver, Colorado, Beth runs a small embroidery business @rabbithatdesigns. Beth started embroidering while going through the shift of moving countries a few years ago and fell in love with the process. Beth seeks to share her love of nature and the power of making, connecting people to creatures and botanicals through exploring all the beauty in the teeniest and largest of details, as well as sharing the joy and soothing of learning to stitch through her DIY embroidery patterns and kits. When shes not embroidering, Beth can be found out and about in the Rocky Mountains with her husband in their camper van, drinking tea, reading, outdoor swimming, and watching films and documentaries.
