Most of the fabric we sell is sourced as deadstock — leftover fabrics of brands and manufacturers that would otherwise become waste!

Staff Made | Charlotte Remakes A Fave Dress

Charlotte, from our HQ team, decided to recreate one of her favourite makes from 2020 — a dress that's so loved it's now threadbare! She chose a bold highlighter yellow cotton to match the intensity of the original fluro dress and we love the result!

Staff Made | Chloe's Dawn Apron

Online team member Chloe recently snapped up some Helmut Lang designer deadstock denim, perfect for the utilitarian apron she's been planning. She loved the shape of Lydia Naomi's Dawn Apron pattern, and paired it with this new Italian dark indigo denim!

Make by TFS

It's been a longtime dream of our team to create our own home sewing patterns and we are SO excited to now have our very own range. Make by TFS has evolved from our desire to encourage as many people as possible to sew their own clothing slowly, a natural extension of our sustainable and ethical business values and our design-driven philosophy.

Make Your Own ∙ May Jeans

A handmade pair of jeans is a labour of love and we think our May Jean pattern is worth it! With three leg shape options, zip fly closure, high rise fit and five pocket construction — it's sure to be a wardrobe staple!
