Thimble Fingers was created by Julie Macdonald in 2000, at a time when she was living in Singapore and the opportunity arose for her to pass on her embroidery skills by teaching embroidery in Asia. In 2001 she returned to Australia and hasn’t looked back since.

 

Thimble Fingers is a home based mail order business, operating out of a small home studio in Julie’s garden at Meadow Springs, Mandurah in Western Australia.

 

At Thimble Fingers you can attend classes to learn the techniques of stump work, surface embroidery and more, and also purchase embroidery supplies. However, as it is a home based business, we would appreciate if you could contact us for an appointment prior to visiting the premises, as it is not operated as a shop open to the public, nor is it run on regular hours.

 

Julie has taught hundreds of ladies from Singapore, India, Indonesia, and Malaysia how to create her designs. She has also taught at Gentle Threads and Kindred Spirits in Australia, as well as at her Thimble Fingers studio in Mandurah.
