Discover how Colombian artist Lady Quintero transformed the inspiration of a bumblebee spotted in Paris’s Parc de Bercy into a unique piece, blending traditional, magical, and stumpwork embroidery techniques—while reflecting on the healing power of creating with your hands. I’m @ladyautonauta, a Colombian embroiderer passionate about traditional and magical embroidery. In this project, you’ll see how I finally brought to life a little bee that had been on my to-do list for a while. It’s inspired by a bumblebee I saw one day in a park in Paris—so beautiful and fuzzy that it stayed with me. I took this opportunity to embroider it using magical embroidery techniques combined with stumpwork for the wings. I invite you to take a look at my creative process behind this little embroidered bee.
