The Origin story

Embroidery and Patches didn’t start out as a business plan. It started as a way for Carissa to stay sane during a tough season. She was sick with a mysterious illness and taught herself hand embroidery to keep her mind off the unknown. She took a chance and put it on Etsy, not thinking anything would happen. A few best-seller listings shortly after happily proved her wrong.

After her first wholesale order came in, she sprained both wrists from hand-embroidering 12 hours a day. Her husband said, “You’re buying an embroidery machine.” One hobby machine quickly became three. Two years later, those three hobby machines turned into multi-head commercial machines. We continue to add more machines to meet the ever-growing demand.

What started as hand-embroidered wall art grew into a custom embroidery business that’s gone viral more than once. Most memorably, she created thousands of patches worn by thousands of customers who created outfits for Eras Tour concert shows across 21 different countries.
