Meet Kaylin & the cart.

ABOUT

The maker, the machine, and the styled station behind every stitch.

MEET KAYLIN · FOUNDER & LEAD STITCHER

A designer’s eye, a maker’s hands

Kaylin is a mom of three who turned a needle and thread into a way to stay home with her babies. Four years later, that idea has grown into a craft that spans it all — from personalized keepsakes to large commercial orders stitched to spec and delivered on deadline.

Now she's bringing her six-needle machine on-site, stitching custom favors live at weddings, showers, birthdays, brand activations, and other celebrations. She pairs a designer's eye with a maker's hands and a styled cart that becomes the most-photographed corner of the party — where guests watch their keepsake come to life and take it home the same day.

MEET “EMMY” · THE EMBROIDERY CART

The Station is the Centerpiece.

Our cart, affectionately named Emmy, isn't a folding table in the corner — she’s a styled, Instagram-ready station designed to fit right into your event. Fresh florals, thoughtful signage, a curated keepsake display, and a professional monogram machine humming away as guests watch their piece come to life.

→ Styled to match your events palette

→ A built-in photo moment for guests

→ Commercial 6-needle machine for professional finish

PART OF THE FAMILY

The on-site arm of Sheppard Design Co.

Franklin Stitch Club is the live-event side of Sheppard Design Co. — bringing the same design sensibility to something you can watch happen in real time. Behind every monogram is a design studio that cares about type, color, and craft.

Beyond the cart, Sheppard Design Co. offers embroidery year-round — custom orders, gifts, and large corporate runs, from a single monogrammed keepsake to hundreds of branded pieces. Whether or not there's an event on the calendar, we're happy to stitch it.
