female Women-owned

Stitch House Creative is owned and run by myself, Tracey Italiano, and came about through my lifelong obsession with creativity, particularly with beautiful fabrics and papers.
I developed a love of sewing from a young age when I used to practice on my mum's old Singer treadle sewing machine.
From there, I participated in school sewing, and it is a love I have continued throughout my life while raising children and working full-time. The spare room always being an escape to a paradise of creativity.
The time came when I was no longer satisfied working 9-5 behind a desk in the admin world. I had a desire to enable others to learn, grow confidence, and share the joyful experience and satisfaction of creative sewing.
Sewing is a skill for life, and it is never too late to learn.
One of my favorite quotes is "You can't use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have." — Maya Angelou
