Portrait of Sara Pastrana, owner and founder of Flourishing Fibers

Founder and owner Sara Pastrana

Don't let this pretty site fool you into thinking Flourishing Fibers is a vast company. It's quite the opposite! Flourishing Fibers is a one-woman show.

Hi! I’m Sara. I design, create, curate, write, package, and everything in between. When you purchase from me, you support a mom with a big dream to spread the joy of paper and wood embroidery one stitch at a time. And yes, I really do a happy dance with every order 😀.

Customer Love

  • I love everything Sara does with Flourishing Fibers. Her art is incredible! She puts a great deal of thought and care into each and every one of her designs.

    Jennifer P.

  • The materials are high quality and the instructions and youtube videos make everything so easy, even for someone who had never embroidered before like myself. Shipping was very fast also. The finished product is gorgeous.

    Megan D.

  • Everything I have purchased from Flourishing Fibers has been a delight of design and craftsmanship. I have followed Sara's work for several years now because her innovation is inspiring to see, and I know each item has had thoughts and heart poured into it.

    Mara S.

  • Interesting and unique finds. Always professional and pleasant, quick to respond to questions and concerns.

    Nancy V.

  • 100% recommended. Sara is a very professional artisan, willing to assist you in everything you need, she offers outstanding products.
