My name is Emma Broughton, FRSN, BA (hons)

I'm a fine art embroidery artist, RSN Professional Tutor and Fellow (FRSN) based in Wiltshire, working at the intersection of traditional needlework and contemporary storytelling — using embroidery as a medium for portraiture, narrative and cultural expression.

Trained at the Royal School of Needlework and author of Embroidered Boxes (Crowood Press, 2019), I'm currently developing Woman Unbound, an Arts Council England-funded Blackwork portrait series exploring female empowerment, defiance and resilience, alongside teaching hand embroidery in person and online across the UK, US and Canada.
