About Thread The Word

Thread The Word was founded by me, Sarah Foot, after many years of working as a textile artist on the side of my career in interior design and the creative industries. I now dedicate myself full time to creating bespoke embroidered pieces that are mainly commissioned to be given as special gifts for weddings, christenings, anniversaries and more.

In the UK alone, over 200 tonnes of textiles are sent to landfill per year. So where possible I always try to use reclaimed fabrics. It can be challenging but very often it makes the piece more interesting and adds an extra layer of history to the finished article, as well as being more sustainable for the planet.

If you have a specific or sentimental piece of fabric that you would like me to work on then please get in touch to discuss. See my portfolio for pieces I have done in the past but I’m always keen to hear your ideas even if you haven’t seen something done before!
