## Meet your expert

### My story

We’re Sameeksha. Embroidery isn’t just decoration for us—it’s memory, emotion, and a bit of amma’s (mom’s) wisdom stitched in. Started this place so those stories don’t get lost. Every time a student makes something new—like earrings for her little one—it’s pure magic. Needle, thread, and a lot of heart. Teaching hand embroidery keeps us connected, gives us joy. It’s addictive, honestly. Once you start, you’ll see.

### My work

- **Hand Embroidery Courses & Workshops**: We teach 25+ styles, including Kasuti embroidery classes and Kantha stitch workshops. Beginners and enthusiasts welcome.
- **Custom Embroidered Apparel & Sarees**: We design and sell unique hand-embroidered sarees, blouses, stoles. Custom orders to match your ideas, even rejuvenate old clothing embroidery.
- **Personalized Designs, Not Trends**: You tell us your colors, motifs, we stitch your story. Each piece is made for you, not the market.
- **Attention to Technique and Neatness**: Neatness matters. Kasuti work—no knots, both sides look just as good. We care about the craft.
- **Embroidery for Well-being**: Embroidery is meditative. Our sessions help you find patience and satisfaction, one stitch at a time.
