About Us…
Hi! We are Dar & Deb Cormier, creators and designers of beautiful pieces of art stitched with various threads, yarns and techniques.
Each design has been a wonderful ‘excuse’ for us to reminisce & explore our diverse interests in history, nature, art, antiques, and much more!
It all comes from family history & traditions. As sisters, we grew up around collectors, crafters and stitchers from both sides of the family. As children, we spent so much time at our Great Grandmother’s victorian home in Downtown Toronto amongst the antiques and fabulous trinkets from times gone by …they will always be a wealth of inspiration for us when designing our works.
“Creating beautiful handmade things of all sorts just comes very naturally to us”
The Design Studio
Since 2003, we’ve offered our local community here and all around the world some very fine gifts, collectibles, and hand made treasures for your interior spaces.
So grab a coffee or tea and browse our unique collections of handmade items all carefully crafted with love from the finest materials in the world, all just waiting for you to add your personal touch!
What We Do
Our patterns are compatible with hand embroidery, needle painting and fine punch needle embroidery.
When combining different fibres and textures, we ensure all of our needlework fabrics work together with the embroidery floss, perle cotton, fine crewel wool and needle felting fibres we offer.
We source our premium needlework fabrics and supplies from Canada, Europe and Japan.
Create your own unique Thread Painting Embroidery using our watercolour or coloured pencil artwork as a guide and our Cosmo embroidery floss colour recommendations.
We print our patterns onto Zweigart and Cosmo brand needlework fabric, using professional fabric printing equipment and Oeko-tex standard ink.
Whether you have been searching for the perfect gift for someone special, a small indulgence for yourself, or just a little bit of calm, we invite you to pour a cup of tea and spend some time exploring our shop.
Kind Words…

The Cosmo flosses are exceptional in quality, softness and color.
