Sophie, a former New York fashion buyer now based in Chicago, turned her needlepoint passion project into Rooney and Stitch, drawing on whimsical animals and retro graphic design. Her collection is best known for its extensive dog and cat breed cameos, from corgis to Boston terriers, alongside needleminders, project bags, food-inspired canvases, and state mascots. It's a playful, pet-loving mix for stitchers who want to celebrate their favorite furry friends in thread.
