Freya Gates is a lifelong needlework enthusiast, textile artist, and instructor with a passion for preserving traditional stitching techniques while making them accessible to modern crafters. Inspired by generations of makers in her family, she has spent over a decade exploring embroidery, cross-stitch, needlepoint, and decorative hand-sewing. Through her books, Freya guides readers of all skill levels in creating beautiful handmade projects, from elegant samplers and heirloom keepsakes to contemporary designs for the home. Her clear, step-by-step instructions and encouraging teaching style have helped thousands of stitchers build confidence and develop their craft. When she is not designing patterns or researching historical needlework traditions, Freya enjoys visiting textile museums, collecting antique sewing tools, and teaching workshops to crafting communities. She believes that every stitch tells a story and that needlework is a timeless art that connects generations through creativity, patience, and craftsmanship. Freya lives with her husband, an ever-growing collection of embroidery threads, and a rescue cat who frequently supervises her stitching projects.
