Editorial

Books, kits, magazines

I’ve worked in various creative roles in media and publishing over the years, combining these skills with a love for hand embroidery to create content for magazines, books and kits. I know the editorial process well and can follow a brief or brainstorm ideas, create original designs, write copy and comprehensive instructions, embroider samples for photography and stick to a publishing schedule.

Some of the publishers around the world that I've worked with are becker&mayer! (US), Droemer Knaur (Germany), Embroiderers' Guild (UK), Ideas (South Africa), Inspirations (Australia), Kyle Books (UK), Our Media (UK) and Quarto (UK). 

If you’d like to chat about your idea or any other project involving needle and thread, big or small, please get in touch on kelly@fellenn.com.
