About Pincushion

🌸 Welcome to Pincushion! 🌸

Pincushion is a cross-stitch design brandfounded by illustrator and picture book writer, Namgung Jung-hee. 🎨🧵
Born from a deep love for embroidery and craftsmanship, Pincushion brings illustrations to life through the delicate art of cross-stitch. ✨


💛 The Story Behind Pincushion💛
As an illustrator, I often incorporate embroidery and miniature techniquesinto my artwork. Over time, I fell in love with the process of sewing itself, inspiring me to create designs exclusively for embroidery. This passion led to the creation of Pincushion in 2019.


🌸 Our Brand Symbol🌸
“Pincushion” originally refers to a small cushion used for holding needles, 🧷
but my brand logo is inspired by the pincushion protea—a flower named for its resemblance to that cushion. 🌼
I hope that each of my designs becomes a journey of healing for some,
and a small moment of accomplishment for others. 💖
Just like the flower’s meaning—“success everywhere”—
I wish to share that success with each and every one. ✨🌍


🌿 Our Vision & Craftsmanship🌿
At Pincushion, we hold trademark rightsfor embroidery designs, prints, and digital files.
Our goal is to inspire customers to experience the beauty of craftsmanship,share the joy of achievement, and connect through the meditative process of cross-stitching. 🎨💖


✨ Join Us on a Peaceful Journey✨
Indulge in the art of cross-stitch, embrace the tranquilityit brings, and create something truly meaningful with every stitch. 🧵💖


 What is <Pincushion Pick>?


This is a project to create cross-stitch designs of the works of several artists selected by Pincushion.


The main character of the first collaboration of 2023 is the UK's famous watercolorist and illustrator Mary Woodin's watercolor essay published in 2017 <draw to the country> Among the works, we are producing a cross-stitch design through the official license.

And in 2024, British toy designer and illustrator Justin Worsley's charming character works will be available as cross-stitch designs.


We are dedicated to continuously presenting you with New designs through our collaborations with these captivating artists. Stay tuned as we unveil various patterns that will captivate your heart .


Drawn to the Country


This book is a collection of her watercolor works documenting a year she spent in Suffolk, England.


Suffolk's nature, small city buildings, seaside landscapes, wild flowers and plants, and the people of Suffolk are documented as if in a diary.


Enjoy the beautiful Mary Woodin's work in a book, and enjoy embroidery with the cross-stitch designs made with her paintings.


You can feel the sensibility that Mary Woodin felt in Suffolk during the time to complete every corner of the work with embroidery.


 

Since moving to the country just over a decade ago I have been compelled to record the beauty I find in the every-day, as the seasons come and go, and for a few years now, I have been sharing my thoughts and sketches on rural life through this blog.

I am, however, also a big fan of printed matter, of proper books with paper pages that can you can flick through over morning coffee. Books that will spend an evening with you on the sofa, lodge by your bedside or cheer up a good friend.


With this in mind, I'm really excited to announce the publication of DRAWN TO THE COUNTRY.
