NYCLEMENTINE STUDIO
From Handwriting to Thread
Some words are too meaningful to leave tucked away in a drawer. NYClementine Studio transforms handwriting from the people we love into embroidered keepsakes. A note from a parent. A child’s first written words. A signature. A few words from someone you miss. Each piece begins with the original handwriting and is carefully recreated in thread on heavyweight natural cotton canvas, preserving the little irregularities, gestures and marks that make the writing unmistakably theirs. Your original never leaves your hands. All we need is a photograph or scan.

Handwriting Keepsakes
A first written word. A note from someone you love. A signature or sentence you never want to lose. We preserve the original hand in thread.
Children's Art Keepsakes
The crooked houses, enormous suns and first family portraits that deserve more than a place on the refrigerator. We recreate the child's original lines in embroidery without correcting the things that make them theirs.
Family Recipe Keepsakes
A recipe written in a familiar hand, preserved as an embroidered family heirloom.

Mom Brain
Los Angeles, 2026
Mom Brain explores the quiet, fragmenting experience of motherhood where love, hypervigilance, identity, and memory exist in constant overlap. Through layers of texture, raw canvas, and deliberate mark-making, this collection captures the internal landscape of carrying another life while attempting to hold onto your own. Each piece is a physical record of time paused: chaotic yet soft, deeply heavy yet grounded in presence.
