My Story

I’m Katelyn, the designer and maker behind Indigo Thread. I’ve always loved design. All through high school I would make my own clothes, screen printing, sewing and adjusting op shop finds. After school I started studying Interior Design, however I soon realised that interior design wasn’t for me, rather I loved designing individual textile products. It wasn’t until I became a mum that I found the time to sew again and I started Indigo Thread. I wasn’t happy with the limited fabrics choices available at the time so I learnt how to design my own unique fabrics, soon realising this is my passion. I’m now a self taught textile designer, primarily designing fabrics as well as creating sewing patterns and occasionally releasing a range of clothing or accessories.
