Miriam, known as slow_evenings_embroidery on Instagram, is an embroidery artist who during the day works as a UX designer. She uses every free moment she has to create adorable embroidered people and their plants. She also embodies fun sayings that make the perfect addition to your wall decor.

She likes to say that she’s “embracing slow life one stitch at a time.” We absolutely love her style and the colors she picks — her work has a minimalistic vibe but the use of different stitch techniques provides texture.

You can check out Miriam’s work below and follow her on Instagram to see more in the future.

Some more experimenting with background textures ✨ Geometrical shapes are the most challenging for me. The trickiest part of this piece was transferring the design on the fabric (I succeeded the second time) 😅 I'm so happy I persevered though because embroidering it was so satisfying 👌 . . . #embroideryinstaguild #em_hm #embroiderydesign #bordadolivre #broderie #letteringlove #typographyinspiration #typographydesign #typographie #typographyart #slowtime #slowcraft #inpraiseofslowness #homebody #gnivibes #letsstayhome #theslowdowncollective #heytheremaker #craftbuzz #handmadehour #handmadeisbest #seekinspirecreate #abmcrafty #homeaccents #homedecorlovers #bohoismyjam #styleithappy #modernembroidery #contemporaryembroidery

Those two cactus hoops were created as a set and I'm so happy they're going to the same home! 💕🌵💕 Also I ordered the hoops 4 times to get a matching set of wooden hoops in 10 and 12 cm with a golden clasp.. 😅 . . . #dmcembroidery #dmcfloss #embroideryinstaguild #handembroidered #embroiderydesign #embroideryhoopart #haft #embroiderylove #feelingstitchyig #modernembroidery #cacticacti #cactos🌵 #cactus🌵 #urbanjungleblogger #succulovers #botanicalartist #botanicalart #createmakeshare #craftbuzz #craftsposure #handmadecurator #textilelove #handsthatmake #bohoismyjam #thenewbohemians #mybohoabode #bohemiandecor #jungalowstyle #mybohoabode #desertstyle
