Man-broidery. Boy-broidery. Guy-stitching. Bro-broidery. Whatever
you call it, guys are (and always have been) doing it. You know,
embroidering! Wielding the needle! Marking the muslin! Poking the
pillowcase! Splitting the stitch! Which is fantastically awesome. I
say: there needs to be more men embroidering. And it seems that there
are.
</p>
<p>
After all, needlework tends to be seen as belonging to the ‘gentler
arts’ related to home and fashion, executed by women in a domestic
setting. And, no matter how spectacular the results, no matter how many
hours of patience and work, it seems to be appreciated by the few.
Until men do it! Then we’re extra happy about it. And that’s okay,
because traditionally in this country, men are not found quietly
working over their hoops.
</p>
<p>
One of the best-known, living legends of embroidery is Monsieur
François LeSage, whose work has playfully and beautifully adorned haute
couture for decades. LeSage still presides today over Ecole LeSage in
Paris where anyone (for a price) can enroll and learn some of the
finest techniques of embroidery.

<p>
But don’t take my word for it, men are stitching it for themselves and here are some fine examples of men-who-stitch:
