Punch Needle and Embroidery:

Hello!  Welcome to The Modern Crafter.  

The Modern Crafter is a small UK craft business and collaboration between sisters, Rachel & Siobhan bringing our customers traditional crafts in a modern way.  Siobhan is a freelance textile designer specialising in print design and has over 15 years experience designing for fashion and homeware brands. Rachel is a self-taught embroidery and punch needle artist and has been developing her skills in these crafts. previously Rachel began her career working with global corporates and now loves to apply that same focus and attention to The Modern Crafter. 

We were always keen to collaborate together and it was when Rachel was on maternity leave and started to enjoy embroidery and punch needle crafts to relax that Rachel asked Siobhan to design her something to craft and this is how we are here today and we are very excited to share these wonderful crafts and designs with you too!  

We hope that our DIY kits/workshops and downloadable designs creates you some all important chill time, we’ve found that these crafts are a great way to create self-care as they are very relaxing and find that it helps to clear the mind and bring calmness.

We are passionate about sharing our design and craft experience and here to support you on your crafting journey.
