Edelweiss Embroidery · Houston, Texas

The gift that makes them ask where you got it.

I stitch names and monograms onto pillows people actually keep — for the dorm, the nursery, the newlyweds, the friend who hosts everything. One pair of hands, matched thread, and a piece made just for the person getting it.

See it before you buy

Build the gift tag. Send it to yourself.

Type a name, choose a thread, and watch your monogram land on the pillow — then on a gift tag you can screenshot. It’s the easiest way to know it’s exactly right.

Design a gift How the proof works

The promise

You’ll see it before I stitch it.

Because every piece is personalized, all sales are final — so I make certain it’s right first. You’ll approve a stitched-layout proof of your exact monogram, thread, and placement. Nothing is stitched until you’ve seen it.

How the proof works

The maker

A nurse who learned to stitch.

I built Edelweiss over five years here in Houston, alongside a nursing career. Appliqué is my signature — I machine-stitch a fabric shape, hand-cut it free, then finish every edge in satin stitch. It’s slower than plain embroidery, and it’s exactly why these pieces feel like keepsakes.
