About us
Where creativity meets technology
DollThreads began with two very different talents and one shared idea.
Susan
Patterns & sewing
I’ve loved sewing and making things for as long as I can remember. When my daughter was about four, I even made her a life-sized doll. Over the years, that love of creating eventually led me to miniature dolls and the wonderful, sometimes frustrating world of sewing tiny clothes.
Sean
Design & technology
My son, Sean, brings an entirely different set of skills. With his background in design and web development, he knows how to turn complicated ideas into simple, intuitive online experiences.
Together, we saw an opportunity to make sewing doll clothes easier and more enjoyable.
The idea was simple: What if you could choose a doll, select a pattern, customize the fabric, and receive everything printed together on a fabric panel, ready to cut and sew?
- No paper patterns to print.
- No tiny pieces to trace.
- No guessing whether the design will fit your doll.
Sean is building the technology that makes that experience possible, while I focus on the patterns, fabrics, sewing techniques, and details that make each outfit work.
What we care about
- Making doll clothes easier and more enjoyable to create.
- Combining thoughtful design with technology that does the complicated work for you.
- Offering patterns that fit dolls of different sizes.
- Helping beginners feel confident, whether they sew by hand or machine.
- Providing personal service from a real family behind the business.
DollThreads is where a love of making things meets a love of figuring out how to make them better.
