Custom Hand-Embroidered Apparel and Keepsakes
Welcome to my little corner of the world. Every thread you see here is stitched by hand in my Jabalpur studio, turning your stories into wearable art.
This is what it's all about. Turning a favorite memory into simple, beautiful line art that you can wear. This custom embroidered sweatshirt was for a group of besties, and I'm low-key obsessed with how it turned out.
A close-up of the magic. I love filling initials with tiny, colorful flowers. Each petal and leaf is stitched by hand, making every floral letter a unique piece of art, like this 'TEJA' sweatshirt.
For those secret messages and inside jokes. This matching couple's hoodie set has custom text embroidered on the cuffs. It's a subtle, sweet way to feel connected.
This isn't just a sweatshirt, it's a love letter in Urdu. I love working with different scripts to make your piece truly personal. Watching the word 'Iftikhar' (pride) come to life stitch by stitch was so special.
Wear your sunshine, literally! I made this matching sunflower set, a hand-embroidered t-shirt and bucket hat, for someone who wanted to gift a little bit of happiness.
This is me, Resham, and a little piece of my heart. This video shares the story of how Buddy Handmades started in memory of my dog and grew into what it is today, all thanks to your love and support.
Your favorite photo, but make it a keychain. I can create a hand-embroidered portrait, either as line art or fully colored, to make a tiny, perfect keepsake you can carry with you.
About Featured
Getting a custom piece here isn't like ordering from a big factory. Because it is just me behind the needle, please factor in a 15-25 day processing window for your order. This time allows me to focus on the fine details, like getting that line-art portrait just right or filling in your initials with a garden of tiny, hand-stitched flowers.
When you commission a piece, you are not getting a machine-made print. I use cotton threads and careful manual stitching to bring your ideas to life. Whether it is a line-art portrait of your squad, a secret message hidden on a hoodie cuff, or a floral-filled initial, the goal is always to create something that feels like an emotion, not just a product.
I work with 180 GSM cotton for t-shirts and 300 GSM fleece-lined fabric for sweatshirts to ensure they feel as good as they look. If you have a specific photo you want turned into art, send it over. I focus on clean, minimalist outlines that capture the memory without the clutter. For those wanting something more personal, I can work with different scripts like Urdu or add specific dates that matter to you.
Since every piece is made to order in my home studio, I handle everything from the initial sketch to the final eco-friendly packaging. It takes time, but it ensures that when you wear it, you feel the effort and care behind it. If you are planning a gift, reach out early so I can manage the timeline. My parcels have traveled from Jabalpur to Switzerland, so wherever you are, I can send a little bit of this handmade love your way.

Hi, I am Resham. I started this in memory of my dog, Buddy, and it has grown into this beautiful chaos of threads and parcels. I stitch every piece myself, usually with chai in hand and my family pitching in to help pack.
