Who We Are

Black Swans Studios is a creative coalition of like-minded needlework artisans.

We are committed to providing opportunities for a modern reimagining of unique, beautiful, and informative needlework treasures from our past.

We focus on sharing collected knowledge and skills with today’s needle workers through multiple learning channels.

We believe in honoring the skills, methods, and styles of needlework from our history, while encouraging today’s interpretation and creative application.

Black Swans Studios is a thoughtfully founded organization several years in the making. Jackie du Plessis and Kimberly Young invite you to join with them as they give flight to the creative coalition that is Black Swans Studios.
