The Stitchery of Catherine Hill, a Lancashire Lass
I’m thrilled to have two pieces of my work in latest digital catalogue from The Embroiderers’ Guild. ‘Take Time to Smell the Roses’ (Life’s Rich Pattern Challenge) and ‘The Sounds of the Kenwood Chef’ (My Favourite Things Challenge). You can see more by clicking the link below.

The challenge theme for next year is ‘Exquisite Containers’ – are you taking part?
Very happy news. I’ve been ‘Commended for the Beryl Dean Award for Hand Embroidery’ for my work “The Sound of the Kenwood Chef”. The piece was my submission to this year’s The Embroiderers’ Guild UK Members’ Challenge. I can’t stop smiling.
Allowing for the current Covid 19 situation, the plan is that all the Challenge artworks will be on exhibition at a future Knitting & Stitching Show.
You are welcome to browse through some of my earlier pieces – ‘Take Time to Smell the Roses’, ‘Cheese and Onion Pie‘ & ‘Time for Tea‘.
I’m thrilled my tiny piece of embroidery has appeared in the May 2020 edition of The Embroiderers’ Guild ‘Contact’ magazine. The piece for The Embroiderers’ Guild challenge ‘NHS – Reasons to be Thankful’ is lace mounted onto card and is 4 inches square. All the pieces will be collated to make large artworks for hospitals across the UK.
(Update May 2021: The collated work in this project can be viewed in a dedicated Embroiderers’ Guild Reasons to be Thankful: Thank You NHS – Part 1 E-Book )
I create my own embroidery under the name of Catherine Hill Textile Artist.
Have you submitted work too? Leave a message below and let me know.
It’s the second piece I’ve submitted to the Guild this year. My previous piece was for The Embroiderers’ Guild Members’ Challenge. The topic was “My Favourite Things”. My piece was called “The Sound of the Kenwood Chef”.
