About Madison & Thread
Welcome to Madison & Thread! My name is Maddy Hensch and I am the owner and creator of this small business. I've always been interested in art and have dabbled in many different mediums throughout my life! Though I enjoy other art forms, embroidery is where my true passion lies! My pieces are usually nature based with a vintage feel. I try my hardest to package each order with recycled materials as well as use recycled fabrics! My hopes for Madison & Thread is to share what I love with others while promoting sustainability and a deeper appreciation for nature!
Personal Life
In my personal life I am a teacher. In previous years I have acquired an Associate of Arts, Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education, and a Master of Arts in Special Education with certificates in Autism, Reading, and TEFL.
​
I have recently taken a job working as a Refugee Youth Mentoring Program Coordinator for JFCS. This nonprofit is based out of Pittsburgh, PA. I will be living in Pittsburgh from July 2021 - October of 2021 working directly with the sweet refugee children.
​
In my future endeavors, I will be moving to Alaska from January 2022 - May 2022 working as an Academic Interventionist for Southwest Region Schools in Alaska.
Student Made Store
In January, 2021 I was offered a place in the Student Made Store to sell my embroideries. The Student Made Store's mission is to promote entrepreneurship, encourage self expression, and grow community impact.
​
Through the Student Made Store, many talented artists have been able to display their work to a much larger audience and work together to promote and support each other.
