IMPORTANT NOTICE

Good morning, my dear,
This is a final reminder that ThePrimitiveHare.shop will be permanently closed at the end of April. Let me be absolutely clear: I am not closing my business. I am only closing the website, which has become an unnecessary expense. My work will continue exactly as before.

From the end of April onwards, my products will be available:
– exclusively on Etsy
– and, as always, through all the wonderful shops that already carry my work, as well as many more worldwide via Hoffman
Nothing is disappearing—only the website.
What will disappear are your reward points.

If you have points on ThePrimitiveHare.shop, you must redeem them directly on the website before the end of April. After that, the site will be deactivated, all points will expire, and they will be permanently lost.
There will be no exceptions. I will not be able to honour any requests for point redemption, discounts, or adjustments on Etsy after the closure.
Please use your points now—or they will be gone.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

FAREWELL TO OUR PINS AND FOBS

Dear Wicked Hares,
We want to inform you about an important decision regarding our catalog. Due to the very limited profit margin on pins and fobs, and especially after the new customs duties came into effect, we have decided to discontinue these products. Another reason behind this choice is that pins and fobs have unfortunately been the main cause of repeated shipping delays. We are truly concerned that such delays may harm our image and our ability to serve you in the best possible way.

For this reason, we will fulfil the pin orders placed during the latest market, but we will not accept any further requests. We sincerely regret this decision, but in such a delicate moment of your Hare’s personal life, it has become necessary in order to avoid adding extra stress and further delays to those already caused by customs.

Once all pending orders are shipped, we will organise a clearance sale of the remaining stock and, of course, we will notify you in advance.
We kindly ask you to share this information with your LNS, so they can promptly update their catalogs and remove these items.

Please note that the rest of our catalog remains intact and always available: patterns, fabrics, thread keeps, thread drops, and also all the small handmade accessories that we occasionally offer in limited editions.


Thank you all for your understanding and continued support.
With gratitude,

Your Hare ๐Ÿ‡

HOLIDAYS!

My dearest wicked hares,
I closed the doors of my little enchanted emporiums and set off on a (more or less) well-deserved holiday.
Since September, life has been anything but quiet. Between my father’s illness, my mother’s fragility, and Samanta’s accident, I’ve found myself carrying more weight than I ever imagined, both in heart and hands. I won’t pretend: I am tired. Deeply so. But also serene.

This weariness has slowed me down, and as a result, many of you have waited longer than usual for your patterns, your packages, your treasures. Yet, except for a few rare shadows, you’ve been radiant with patience, kindness, and understanding. Some of you even sent warmth and encouragement, and for that, I am endlessly grateful.
My world turned upside down, but I stayed standing thanks to all those who love me… including you. Still, I carry a bit of regret for the tangled threads I left behind in my work. Please believe me when I say: I always tried to do my best, even when time and strength were slipping through my fingers.

Now, at long last, I’m setting off to a land I’ve dreamed of for years, a place I’ve never seen, yet have always felt calling me. I promise to take you with me, to show you glimpses of old magic, of sacred stones and whispering winds, of stories etched in time.
Thank you, from the depths of my heart, for bearing with the mess, the delays, the confusion.
I’ll be back in July with wonders for summer, Halloween delights, and even a touch of Yuletide sparkle. I’ll give you a little peek upon my return, but the grand reveal will be at our glorious end-of-August market.
Until then, I send you a big warm hug, a sprinkle of stardust, and the soft rustle of hare paws running through the wild meadows.

There are words spoken through needle and thread. There are worlds kept silent, yet stitched into being.
For the next 90 days, every stitch I make, every symbol I share, every story I write, will not simply be part of my work…
It will be a gesture of creation, a thread stretched between art, memory, beauty, and slowness. I’ve decided to turn my profile into something more.

Because if you’re here, maybe you feel it too: that needle and thread can speak, that a hand stitching holds the memory of a thousand women, that a simple symbol can touch the present like a whisper.

The Primitive Hare: The Art of Stitching Beauty and Preserving Tradition

Once upon a time, amidst the mists of an ancient and magical world, there was a place called The Primitive Hare. It wasn’t just a business; it was a gateway to a universe of magic, history and mystery, where pastel colours met gothic allure, and thread and needle became tools to tell timeless stories.
Behind this magic stands a graceful woman, tall with dark brown wavy hair and deep eyes, often dressed in elegant skirts and black shirts. Her passion for embroidery and art isn’t merely work: it’s a mission. Every creation by The Primitive Hare is a tribute to the past and a promise for the future, an act of love for the art of cross stitch - an ancient craft that, like many others, is at risk of vanishing.

An Art Worth Saving
For centuries, women and men have stitched and sewn, passing down not only skills but also stories, emotions, and fragments of their lives through threads woven with care and precision. However, this millennia-old craft is gradually fading, overshadowed by modernity and industrialization. In this context, The Primitive Hare stands as a cultural stronghold, a project that doesn’t just create beauty but strives to preserve it.
Cross Stitch is not just a skill; it’s a heritage of humanity. Every stitch is an act of resistance against oblivion, a gesture that safeguards the grace and elegance of an art that tells our story. As a wise man once said, “Beauty will save the world.” This is precisely the beauty that The Primitive Hare is committed to safeguarding and passing down. Every design, every pattern invites us to rediscover slowness and the profound meaning hidden in something made with love and patience. Teaching embroidery to future generations means passing down not just a craft but a vision: a world where beauty and tradition are treasures to be protected.

The Essence of The Primitive Hare
The brand is a fusion of three worlds: the sweetness of fairy-tale atmospheres, the immense heritage of history and folklore and the dark charm of gothic art. Its cross stitch patterns are refined and meticulously designed. The color palette is a symphony of antique pastels, with touches of beige and darker contrasts that evoke mystery.
Every design tells a story: hares bounding through enchanted woods, snails carrying secrets, mushrooms recalling the dampness of magical forests. Then there are crowns, symbols of regal elegance, and motifs of spools, looms, and floral elements that celebrate slowness and care. Even in their simplicity, The Primitive Hare’s designs retain grace.
Each product, from the hand dyed fabric to vintage-style prints, celebrates handcrafted work and the time dedicated to it.

The Primitive Hare is not just a brand - it’s a philosophy: an invitation to rediscover the beauty of slowness, to celebrate creativity, and to preserve an art that tells humanity’s story. Every thread, every stitch, is an act of love for the past and a gift for the future. Because, like every piece of embroidery, we too are part of a greater tapestry. Preserving it means protecting what makes us human: the ability to create beauty.
Thus, amidst gothic fairy tales, elegance, and dedication, The Primitive Hare continues to stitch stories that will never cease to enchant (or at least I hope so)

MY NEW SHOP!!! AND 15% OFF ON EVERYTHING




Hello my dear stitchers, it's time to come back to normality! These 2 last months have been very busy but also relaxing, and now it's time to come back to work with you.
I want to present you MY NEW SHOP. As you know Etsy is killing us with fees... for this reason I built my own shop. Prices are cheeper than on my Etsy shop and there is a SALE!!!!! For 24 hours I 15% OFF on EVERYTHING!

I'll open my Etsy too, and I think I'll have both shops on for few months, but obviously I ask you to use my own shop instead of Etsy, an my business is a family business and I can't afford anymore the extra super high Etsy fees.

Enjoy my shop! And thanks!!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PRIMITIVE HARE and GIFT FOR YOU

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PRIMITIVE HARE.
In these days The Primitive Hare celebrates 10 years of business. And I want to start today a lot of celebrations! Stay tuned!!! We'll start today with a special sale on my PATTERNS on Etsy. Please use this coupon code: HAPPYBIRTHDAYHARE when you will check out on Etsy and you'll receive a 15% discount on your patterns order. This offer will be valid till June 1st.

In few weeks I'll be ready to present you also a special project, a collector kit in a splendid box with exclusive product. But we'll talk about this in future.

I totally forgot about this special anniversary but my friend Tuija reminded me about it!!! Oh my I'm so distracted lol. Ten years ago I designed my first pattern and, in autumn, I'd have attended my very first market. For all these 10 years I have always had by my side my beloved model stitcher and friend Elisabetta B. What a lucky person I am (oh well she's very lucky too, hiihihi)
10 years of passion, faith, fights, efforts, dreams, delusions, success and friends.
Thousands of sales on Etsy and much much much more through shops and markets and retreats... because, honestly, Etsy is only a small part of the relationship between me and you. I had the joy to hug so many of you.. and to personally touch your passion and enthusiasm. Thank you!

Thank to you I had the chance to be an independent woman, to build my house and to travel the world. Thank you! Because you are part of my life, every single day! Thanks so much!!!!

Tuija asked me how I started... well.. I had chickenpox!!! I was a graphic designer and I lived in a small flat. I was so bored.... 3 weeks at home with chickenpox.... and so I started to sew small snail dolls, cut some thread keeps and design a couple of patterns... and my new life begun!

Here in Italy we still can't meet friends, but I'll celebrate with my family this evening, with this beautiful cake. I'll have a bigger party in summer (hopefully). I want to share with you also the pics of my very first steps as designer... Some of these pics has been taken by the hubby of my friend Elisabetta B.
Thanks to YOU ALL!!!
And Happy Birthday to us all too!!!
