Meet the owner of Creative Custom Embroidery

by —

Creative Custom Embroidery has been fulfilling the creative needs of residents of Grand Forks, B.C., since 2007. Owner Amber Esovoloff does everything from custom embroidery to printing vinyl to t-shirts and so many things in between. Her passion became her job and she's thrilled to go to work every day.

What do you like most about your job?

I love being creative and watching a new idea, for instance, come out on a shirt.

What is your number one passion outside of work?

My kids are definitely my passion and I also love being crafty.

What was your first job and what was one thing you learned from it?

I worked at a pizza place and I learned that it would be a benefit to be self-employed.

Why did you choose to get into the embroidery business?

I love to quilt and I had a home embroidery machine and I loved it. I also had my daughter and wanted to be able to be home with her and still do something.
