Erin McDonald

Hi! My name is Erin and I'm and I'm a self-taught embroidery artist, specializing in floral embroidery. I picked up embroidery (and several other mediums and fiber crafts) in 2010 while healing from a traumatic car accident using books and iron-on patterns I ordered online. Learning embroidery gave me a space to be creative and focus on something positive. I put my embroidery journey on hold in 2016 to further my education. In early 2020, myself and the rest of the world found ourselves spending a lot more time at home. This extra time allowed me to dive back into my beloved stitching. Eventually, a friend suggested I start making embroidery stitch tutorials... SO I DID! Nothing could have prepared me for what happened next. My stitch tutorials were a huge hit and my TikTok channel grew exponentially. In 2022, I started my own business selling embroidery patterns, kits, and all of my favorite embroidery tools. Today, High Crafting is the largest embroidery channel on TikTok, and getting to share my love of embroidery with people all around the world brings me so much joy.
