About Iris Borduurt

Hi! I'm Iris, and my mission is simple: to make embroidery accessible and, above all, fun for everyone. Whether you're looking for relaxation, creativity, or just a fun new hobby, you've come to the right place.

The nicest online embroidery shop: Iris Borduurt

I create modern embroidery patterns which you can start using right away. I also provide a well-stocked webshop with the best embroidery kits and best materials.

Everything you need, in one place

When I started embroidery in 2018, I was overwhelmed by all the materials and options. From sharp needles to round needles and countless threads—what do you really need? I shopped for my supplies in various places. And after a lot of Googling, I found instructions on how to embroider in even more places.

That's why I created Iris Borduurt: One place for everything you need for your next embroidery project. With the necessary information to get started right away. And in our friendly community you can always contact us for additional embroidery tips and inspiration.

Read my book 'A Stitch Loose'

I wrote my first book, "Een steekje los" (A Stitch Loose), at Blossom Books. I talk about my anxiety disorder and how embroidery, among other things, helped me.

Freshly graduated psychologist Iris ter Haar is embarking on her entrepreneurial career full of enthusiasm. Outwardly, everything seems to be going well, but unknowingly, her world is shrinking, to the point where she no longer dares to leave her house. As an occupational therapy, she's embroidering her fingers while she waits on a seemingly endless waiting list for a psychologist.
