At Twig + Tale, we believe sewing is more than making clothes - it’s a way to slow down, connect, and create with intention.

Our story began in 2008, when our founder Lisa turned to sewing as part of her recovery from a serious hand injury. What started as therapy grew into a love of creating, and soon into a way to share that joy with others.

From humble beginnings selling handmade pieces at markets, Twig + Tale has grown into a global creative community. Since 2015, our digital sewing patterns have helped sewists of all levels make garments, play items, and embroidery projects filled with character and care.

We’re guided by three values: sustainability, inclusivity, and skill-building - always with a touch of whimsy. Our patterns and tutorials are designed to build confidence, spark creativity, and inspire timeless, heartfelt makes.

Most of all, Twig + Tale is about community. Together, we’ve created a storybook corner of the internet where imagination runs free, and where sewists from all over the world come to share, learn, and feel inspired.
