Directors' Circle - Sharon Easdale, Embroidery Collective
Embroidery Collective is one of those businesses who started from something so simple – and have grown to have a massive product range, plus a slew of high-profile clientele – while retaining the passion and values that got them into business in the first place. Based in Moranbah, Sharon and her team are some of the most customer-focused people I’ve ever come across. I really cannot stress enough how personally they take each and every job, it’s wonderful to see and makes them an absolute joy to work worth.

It’s hard not to get swept up in Kate’s wave of exciting ideas and her obvious dedication to client care – which is why we wanted to put her in the director’s hot seat, and pick her brain!
