About

House Alba is a husband-and-wife studio located in Suffield, Connecticut.

Founded by two nature lovers with a shared passion for the quiet beauty of the natural world, our goal is to translate that beauty into embroidery art with real texture and depth.

Our story

The same sloped-ceiling room as the studio: deep green walls, wood floors, a long white cutting table with a gridded mat on a round white rug under a drum pendant light, a glass-front cabinet of supplies, an ironing board, and framed pictures leaning against the wall.

Three weeks, one room

Three weeks ago, this was the guest room. Fabric scraps on the carpet. The embroidery machine squeezed in by the window. Every surface already taken.
