January always brings a quieter kind of magic. After the rush of the holidays, this season invites us to slow down, reflect, and create with intention. It’s a time for fresh ideas, thoughtful planning, and setting the tone for the year ahead.

As we begin a new year, our focus remains the same — meaningful embroidery, timeless designs, and pieces that tell a story.

💜💛💚 Looking Ahead to Mardi Gras

As January comes to a close, we’re also preparing for Mardi Gras, one of our favorite Louisiana traditions. In February, you’ll see the return of our Mardi Gras embroidery line, featuring festive colors, playful designs, and pieces perfect for celebrating the season.

From kitchen towels to giftable décor, these designs are made to bring a little joy, tradition, and Louisiana spirit into your home as Carnival season unfolds.

🐾 What We’re Working On: A New Sweatshirt Line

One of our most exciting projects right now is the development of a new line of embroidered sweatshirts inspired by dogs — loyalty, comfort, and the quiet companionship that only a pet can give.

These designs are still in development, but they’re being created with the same care and warmth you’ve come to expect:

Soft, cozy sweatshirts

Thoughtful embroidery placement

Designs meant to feel personal, wearable, and comforting

This collection connects closely to our Hearts & Paws theme and the continued story of Bun’s Legacy of Love — honoring the bond between people and the animals they cherish.

🌸 Spring on the Horizon

We’re also looking ahead to spring and are excited to be preparing for the Spring Nutcracker Market in Houston, April 17–19. This show always inspires thoughtfully curated collections, and we’re already creating new embroidery designs and limited-release pieces especially for the market.

If you’re planning to attend, we can’t wait to see you there.

🍽️ A New Experience Coming This Fall

Later this year, we’ll be introducing something new — an intimate All Aboard Embroidery Supper Club, launching in the fall.

These small gatherings will bring together good food, beautiful tables, and the stories behind our stitches. Guests will experience our embroidery in a new way through shared meals, thoughtfully styled settings, and early access to new designs. More details will be shared as plans take shape.

🧡 Stitching with Purpose

Whether it’s a festive Mardi Gras towel, a cozy sweatshirt, a keepsake stitched in remembrance, or a table set for a shared meal, our goal remains the same:

To create embroidery that carries meaning.

Thank you for being part of our journey, for supporting handmade, and for allowing us to stitch something meaningful for you.

Every stitch tells a story.

With gratitude and stitches of love,

Julie & Lisa, and the entire All Aboard Team
