It all started when…

Sarah discovered her passion for embroidery back in 2013. After leaving art school (with a BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago), Sarah turned to embroidery as a creative outlet while she worked full-time as a nanny. What started as a hobby quickly transformed into a bit of an obsession and then into a career as Sarah developed her bold embroidery aesthetic full of botanical imagery, strong black outlines, and intense detail.

Fast forward to today, and Sarah K. Benning Arts is a globally recognized brand and continues to create one of a kind embroidered artworks, as well as small batch embroidery kits designed + assembled in house, digital pattern programs, and global workshop opportunities.

Sarah K. Benning Arts is committed to sharing the joy of embroidery through original art and thoughtfully designed do-it-yourself patterns and kits.
