Jessica Long is a self-taught hand embroidery artist living in Arizona with her husband, son and three cats. She received a BS in Biology from the University of Puget Sound which she utilized for nearly a decade while working in biotech. While on maternity leave, she picked up hand embroidery as an outlet for her creative spirit. She began to sell her finished work online but found teaching and pattern design to be more rewarding. She is still inspired by the natural world as seen in her floral and animal embroidery designs. Her tutorials and kits can be found on her website.
