Lina Castro

My story with embroidery started in 2015, and since then it has become part of my life.
Thanks to embroidery, I have been able to connect creative worlds and discover new ones.
Trained as an Industrial Designer, my obsession has been to expand the possibilities of “embroidery beyond the hoop”.
I enjoy turning the embroidered pieces into usable products such as earrings, necklaces or key rings. That is also the reason why I specialize in tiny stitches as the technique is used to embroider small projects.

I have experience as a tutor of design and marketing, and teaching embroidery has been a beautiful way for me to share my passion for this amazing craft. I hope for my students to find in this contemporary practice a new way to express themselves.
