Carey Embroidery

01/02/2026

Late last year, I made the decision to take a step back from Carey Embroidery in 2026.

This year is about creating for the sake of creation. No pressure, no end goal, just curiosity. I want to explore my creative side, try new things, follow inspiration when it shows up, and see where it all leads.

I’ll still be using this page to share what I’m making, what I’m learning, and what’s inspiring me along the way. Think of it as a behind-the-scenes year of experimentation and growth!

As always, thank you to everyone who has supported me, cheered me on, placed orders, shared posts, or simply believed in what I do.

Wishing you all a happy new year and a year full of creativity, rest, and joy!

Happy Pride Month, friends 🌈

We made it to the first of June , aka the month where glitter becomes a personality trait and love gets the spotlight it always deserves.

Whether you're marching in parades, waving from the sidelines, or just trying to make it through the day in one piece — you’re valid, loved, and absolutely enough!

Pride isn’t just about celebration. It’s about survival, softness, strength, and showing up exactly as you are. No edits. No apologies.

So take up space. Rest when you need to. Just know you’re not alone — and someone out here is rooting for you (hi, it’s me 👋🏽).

with love,
CAREY EMBROIDERY

Hey 👋🏾—it’s been a minute, so let’s reintroduce ourselves!

I’m Mercedes "Mer", the hands and heart behind Carey Embroidery – a Black Q***r woman-owned business 🙂

I’ve been sewing since I was a kid, always drawn to the magic of turning fabric into something meaningful.

I started Carey Embroidery because I believe everyone deserves clothing that reflects who they are, captures memories, or tells their story — without breaking the bank!

Let’s be real: who doesn’t love a good t-shirt or cozy sweatshirt? Whether you need one custom piece or a hundred, we’ve got you covered.⁣

Thanks for being here!❤️
