I am Melarise, the mother of dragons (aka all of the Melarise cross stitch patterns). I fell into the world of embroidery five years ago and I am pretty sure I won’t stop until my eyes want to. My favourite tools are time, hands, threads, paper, music, vectors, Internet and my cat. I cry every morning leaving all my started pieces to walk through normal life. This is the first addiction I don’t want to free myself from and I know you know what I mean.
