A little about me

My name is Ludmila Sonkin. I was born in Latvia in Liepaja - known throughout Latvia as "the city where the wind is born," due to the cooling sea breezes that blow constantly. I have always liked the creative arts and crafts. I was very glad to studying and graduating from Fashion Design High School in 1996, and in 2002 from Academy of Art & Design (Tel Aviv).

In June 1991, I arrive to Ashdod, a lovely Mediterranean Sea town in Israel. I live here today with my husband Dmitri Shapkov and our lovely dog Jes. 12-year-old Jes is very healthy and friendly and loves living by the sea.

Today, I practice as an arts & crafts artist, designing images for embroidery and digitize them for embroidery machines. I do many beautiful projects with my machine embroidery designs, using different techniques and machine cross-stitch. I also prepare cross-stitch patterns for stitching by hand and work as a designer and promoter of my web sites.

My very first web site, cross-stitch-patterns.us [1], allowed me to expand from designs in machine cross-stitch to other styles and techniques, and soon I had a second web site (machine-embroidery-designs.us [2]) for machine embroidery.

I have learned a lot, and I am now very pleased to offer a brand new, much more friendly web site, just recently begun in 2007.

I hope you'll enjoy what we have to offer as much as we have enjoyed bringing it to you.
