Dorothee has run die "Werkstatt für historische Stickmuster" with Ute since 2004, which is a webshop for cross stitch charts and the silk floss of Au Ver a Soie. Everything started with her fascination for traditional samplers, which you can find in museums. Since 2008, Dorothee has created her own cross-stitch charts, which are always based on traditional motifs.
