Emma is a sewist, fiber artist, poet, and copyeditor. She learned to sew at a very young age, and her hands have never been without needle and thread for very long. Emma has always had an affinity for repetition and for arranging—this makes them feel right at home at Beadology. When they’re not sewing or arranging indoors, Emma may be found outside birding or hiking. Their exhibition is throughout the month of September during regular business hours.
