Hi, I’m Jean Elizabeth—the founder and designer behind The Sweet Pea Stitchery. I’m so glad you’re here.

The Sweet Pea Stitchery began with a name that has meant the world to me for as long as I can remember. “Sweet Pea” is what my grandfather called me growing up—a nickname that was uniquely ours, filled with warmth, love, and the kind of memories that stay with you forever. When it came time to name this brand, it felt only natural to carry that piece of my story forward and build something just as meaningful around it.

Years later, I was introduced to needlepoint by my best friend, and something about it instantly clicked. I fell in love with the rhythm of stitching, the creativity it allows, and the way it so beautifully blends tradition with personal expression. It quickly became more than just a hobby—it became a creative outlet and a way to slow down and savor the process.

Before long, I found myself dreaming up designs I wished existed—canvases that felt like the perfect balance of classic and playful, polished yet full of personality. Pieces that reflected the things I love most: Southern charm, a touch of wit, and details that feel both timeless and fresh.

The Sweet Pea Stitchery was created from that place. Every design is thoughtfully crafted to be more than something you stitch—it’s something you connect with, display in your home, and come back to again and again. My hope is that each piece feels special, whether you’re stitching it for yourself or someone you love.

At its heart, The Sweet Pea Stitchery is about more than needlepoint. It’s about carrying on traditions, creating something by hand, and finding joy in the little details that make life feel beautiful.

Southern charm, one stitch at a time.
