The Kimberfella

Greetings and welcome to The Kimberfella!

I'm Robbie—a lifelong crafter with a love for creating pieces that bring warmth, whimsy, and a little bit of magic to everyday life. From woodworking to machine embroidery, my creative path has taken many forms over the years, but stitching is where I’ve truly found my rhythm.

Hi! - I am Robbie


My embroidery journey began about 15 years ago with a simple Brother combo machine and a 4"x4" hoop. While that little hoop taught me a lot, I quickly outgrew it—moving up to a 5"x7", and eventually to my current partner in creativity: the Baby Lock Aerial.


It was a gift from my mom, though, that truly reignited my passion—Kimberbell’s Twilight Boo-levard. I stitched it up in just two weeks, and that project opened a whole new chapter in my creative life.


Here on The Kimberfella, you'll find a showcase of my wall quilts, bench pillows, and other embroidery-based crafts, along with tutorials and behind-the-scenes peeks into how I bring each design to life. My goal is to share not just what I make—but how and why I make it—so fellow crafters can feel inspired and empowered to start (or continue!) their own creative adventures.


I live in the heart of Utah's Salt Lake Valley with my tween-age son and my retired father, a resilient amputee who brings his own strength and humor to our home life. Crafting is not just my hobby—it’s my anchor, my joy, and a way to share beauty with the world.


Thanks for stopping by—I'm so glad you're here!
