Hand Embroidery for All

Meet Jess Hands

I picked up embroidery during maternity leave with my youngest, looking for something that was just for me—and it quickly became a way to slow down, unplug, and create with my hands.

What started as keepsake pieces for little ones has grown into Stitched by Hands, where I now teach beginner-friendly Stitch & Sip classes designed to help you learn a new skill and reconnect with your creativity.

I’m based in Rochester, NY, hosting local classes, popping up at markets, and offering custom embroidery pieces.

You can learn embroidery!

Embroidery has become such an important creative outlet for me.

I love helping others discover the same passion through Stitch & Sips.

I’m so glad you are here!
