Welcome to my studio.
From my private Georgetown workshop & studio in Washington, D.C., I create bespoke embroidery for garments, accessories, and select custom commissions.
The studio operates by appointment only and serves exclusively as a secure drop-off and pick-up location for client projects.
I also accept select invitations from retailers, private clubs, and luxury brands to provide on-site embroidery services and special event activations.
For inquiries, commissions, or appointment requests, please contact via email: Ricardo@ricardojposada.com.

Featured Product - Cocktail Napkins
A set of four embroidered 100% linen cocktail napkins inspired by summers along the American coastline.
This collection features four classic seaside motifs:

Each napkin is individually embroidered on white hemstitched linen in my Georgetown workshop in Washington, D.C., designed to bring a timeless coastal character to cocktail hour, summer entertaining, and garden gatherings.
The set is intended to feel collected rather than perfectly matched — a refined assortment inspired by East Coast summers and traditional seaside living.

1 American Flag napkin
1 Lighthouse napkin
1 Sailboat napkin
1 Lobster napkin
Care
Hand wash recommended, or machine wash cold gentle cycle

What To Avoid:
The studio does not accept structured hats, thick leather, heavily seamed garments, highly elastic fabrics, or items that cannot lay flat within the embroidery frame.
Materials containing high amounts of elastane, garments with zippers or pockets directly behind the embroidery area, and pieces with difficult-to-access placement zones may also not be suitable for embroidery.
If you are unsure about your item, feel free to email a photo for confirmation before booking.
Framed Embroidery
A curated selection of small textile works, each embroidered and framed by hand in my Georgetown studio. No two pieces are exactly alike, each is crafted at the time of your order.
