The Thread Smith

Hello All,

A very Happy Easter to you and I hope you’re all keeping safe and well?

I’ll be returning full time to my day job very shortly, so I’ve taken the decision to scale down my services to garment alterations only. The past year has been an absolute pleasure in being able to revisit my creative side again!
Thank you to everyone for your support, please keep in touch if you have any alterations you’d like too. T x

Who remembers Jacko Monkey? The Thread Smith meets Repair Shop. This cheeky monkey was possibly resident to a dust cart or cast aside for a few decades. Now he’s got a new lease of life and is ready to go back home.

Memory bear order finished today, complete with his own hat and scarf for the cold snap.

It’s taken a long time, but finally near to finishing this on trend beaut. Georgette crepe fabric was a real challenge, especially the zip but it’s been worth it for the experience.

How is everyone? I hope you’re all safe and well?

I’ve taken a break of late which is why I’ve been much quieter than usual. I’m slowly working my way though outstanding orders.

Due to a change in my personal circumstances, any new orders will be on a request or appointment basis for alterations on the run up to the Christmas. The order book is pretty full until the end of November which is a lovely probelm to have!

You are more than welcome to contact me directly if you are looking for something new for smaller soft furnishing projects and similar items providing you are in no rush and would consider December/January for completion.
