ABOUT ali
Alison is the heart and hands behind **Embroidered Occasions by Ali**, an intimate studio where every stitch tells a story. A Belizean‑American who has called the Midwest home for decades, Ali has sewn since childhood but discovered the art of embroidery just three years ago—teaching herself with the same patience and curiosity that have always defined her craft. Now in her early 60s and easing into retirement, she’s channeling that lifelong love of needlework into vibrant, custom pieces that celebrate life’s milestones.
