Two businesses are stitching together!

Two businesses are stitching together!

With more than 60 years stitching experience between them, the coming together of Maritime Motifs and Heather Everitt Embroidery, is surely a perfect match!

These two businesses have both been operating in North Devon alongside each other, but now they’ll join together and become one - creating a one stop shop for all aspects of embroidery.

Heather Everitt (pictured right) says, “Margaret Warren and I have known each other for over 20 years, I was her daughter’s primary school teacher!”

“We share a love of textiles and embroidery and we are both originally from the north of England. We have a shared sense of humour and the same values of providing excellent products and service.”

The commercial side will produce the same high quality garments that have been the foundation of Margaret Warren’s Maritime Motifs, clothing both schoolchildren and the adult workforce. Heather will continue with her bespoke banners, fine art, embroidery kits and teaching.

The new business will operate from Limefield Units on Pathfields’ Industrial Estate. A purpose built studio and workshop is on the way this summer. For now they are at Unit 7 with RE Consultancy and Training Ltd.

“We are both so excited for the future and see so many possibilities to collaborate and of course continue the excellence we are both known for,” added Heather (advert p23).
