We've rebranded! Forest & Thread was started five years ago with the intention of creating a DIY sewing company focused on physical goods, specifically garment making kits. As the company has grown and evolved, a new direction began to take shape and we realized where we have carved out a little space in this beautiful sewing community. With the relaunch under Izzie, the goal is to cultivate a brand image and online store experience that matches the end product we sell. Our sewing patterns have always been of the highest caliber, providing an excellent sewing experience as well as a meticulously finished end garment. We hope to bring the overall image of the brand to a place to match the designer level quality product we've always been known for. Forest & Thread got us here, to this point, which we are incredibly grateful for. Izzie will take us to where we want to go. And beyond, as we continue to allow this company to grow and expand into the areas that feel best for us and more importantly, the areas that resonate most with you. Thank you for giving us the chance to show you what we can do, if we just dream a bit bigger.

We've got you, don't worry! The Forest & Thread website will continue to operate and you can continue to access your account at forestandthread.com. If you previously made your purchase through the forestandthread.com website, then your pattern links and workshop access remains there!
