Made in Small Runs, Not Mass Produced

Each piece is designed and hand embroidered in Sydney, one by one or in very small batches. That care and time in every stitch is part of what makes the work considered, personal, and worth the investment.

Frequently asked questions

Have more questions? Visit our FAQ Page for answers.

We’re here to help! Feel free to reach out with any questions, and we’ll get back to you within 24 hours.
Are your pieces really hand-embroidered?

Yes! Every piece is carefully stitched by hand in my Sydney studio. No machines, no shortcuts - just needle, thread, and time. Each design is unique, with its own tiny variations that make it truly one of a kind.
What materials do you use?

All jewellery is made with high-quality, lead- and nickel-free metal settings. Pieces are either gold- or silver-plated, depending on the collection, and embroidered with premium cotton threads on fabric backgrounds.

Hats are 100% cotton or 100% cotton-linen blends.
Where do you ship?

We proudly ship Australia-wide for a flat rate of $10.95 AUD, with free Australian shipping over $150.

International customers are welcome too – please contact me for a shipping quote.
How long will it take to get my order?

Your order will typically take 1-2 business days to process. Once shipped via Australia Post, delivery within Australia usually takes an additional 2-6 business days, depending on your location. In total, you can expect your order to arrive within 3-9 business days after placing it.

Please note that delivery times may vary slightly due to public holidays or delays with Australia Post.
What is your return policy?

I create each piece by hand, so every item is unique and made in small batches. For this reason, I cannot accept returns or exchanges for change of mind. If your jewellery arrives damaged or there is an issue with your order, please contact me within 14 days so I can help. I want you to love your jewellery and will make it right. For more information please view our Returns Policy.
Why isn’t GST charged on my order?

As a small Australian business, I’m not currently required to register for GST. This is a normal part of operating as a small maker, and your order is still processed in full compliance with Australian tax regulations while I continue to grow.

Behind the Stitches

Hi, I’m Lou – embroidery artist, jewellery maker, and founder of The Modern Stitch Studio. I began stitching at age eight with my grandmother, and years later, rediscovered that joy teaching my own daughter.
