Flower Pounding with Hand Embroidery with Maria Andrus

Maria Andrus

Maria Andrus is a hand embroidery artist who has recently moved here from the Seattle area. She spent much of her earlier years visiting museums and art galleries, attending shows, and volunteering her time at the Tacoma Art Museum. Fiber art has always been her favorite medium. From batik art to quilting, but then discovered hand embroidery. For over 10 years hand embroidery has been her passion. When not embroidering, you’ll find her outdoors with her husband and kids, gardening, traveling and chasing all the family pets. Pineapple, the tortoise, is the easiest to catch.
