In recent years, continued expansion has allowed the company to offer many more types of fine embroidery for home furnishings. Today, interior designers and decorators regularly commission Penn & Fletcher to create custom embroidery for curtain all-overs or borders, valances, chair seats and backs, table covers, bed covers, pillows, linens, monograms, or any project which needs embellishment.

Fine Embroidery.

For centuries, fine embroidery has been a hallmark of gracious living. Historically, it has been admired by many, collected by some and commissioned by few. Today, guided by the design professional, we can create truly unique and beautiful embroidery work for the designer and client. Our talented artists are capable of creating embroideries that both enhance any style of decoration and are comparable in price to passementeries or other embellishments.

The Artisans.

The workshop is home to a ‘family’ of some 15 artisans and designers who are fluent in the execution of embroidery work and its conceptualization. At Penn and Fletcher, we can create 18th century embroidery with ultra-modern machines, or modern embroideries with 16th-century hand embroidery techniques. On any scale, from a single pillow to a grand drape for a national opera house, all projects are within reach for our highly skilled artisans.

The Process.

Embroidery is the art of embellishing soft surfaces with sewn ideas. No needle is threaded until all projects have been meticulously researched and the resulting design is perfect in every way. The process always starts with a one on one consultation to completely understand the project at hand. Once that step is completed, our extensive library of samples and resources become available for reference which leads to a sample created by our artisans and eventually a final product.
