A course by Kseniia Guseva
Kseniia Guseva, also known as @faimyxstitch, is an embroidery artist from Saint Petersburg, Russia, who is now based in Berlin. She’s always been interested in creating and has tried everything: knitting, crocheting, cross-stitching, sewing, sketching, and beadwork until she finally found hand embroidery in 2016 and it became her medium of choice.

Architecture is one of her main interests, which is why she created a series of embroidered city patterns, depicting over 130 cities already. Kseniia also loves to experiment with upcycling and customizing garments like jeans, bags, t-shirts, and even sneakers.
