About Us

Welcome to Castlemilk Creations, where every stitch tells a story!

We’re a husband-and-wife team combining creativity, craftsmanship, and decades of hands-on experience to bring you embroidered items that are as functional as they are beautiful. From playful tea towels and cosmetic pouches to aprons, reusable bags, and custom workwear, we create pieces that are made to last—and made to make you smile.

Evelyn here – I’m the creative hands behind the shop! My love for sewing began at the age of 12, inspired by my grandmother, a talented tailor whose passion I proudly carry forward. I like to say I inherited her “genes” in more ways than one!

After a fulfilling career raising funds to support seniors, I returned to my lifelong passion—sewing—and turned a longtime hobby into a small business. My embroidery machine is my favorite tool, helping me create vibrant, durable designs that never crack or fade, no matter how often they’re used or washed.

My partner—recently retired, like me—brings over 50 years of experience in the hospitality industry. He’s a Red Seal Chef, a longtime Calgary Stampede employee and volunteer, and an expert in the demands of workwear that works hard.

With his insight and attention to quality, we’ve expanded into branded apparel—offering chef’s coats, restaurant polos, aprons, team sports uniforms, and embroidered gear for other small businesses. We understand how important it is that these items not only look good, but hold up to everyday use.
