Threaded is a space for slowing down and reconnecting with our hands through fiber and repair. I teach practical, beginner-friendly sewing workshops that focus on mending, reuse, and thoughtful making — not perfection, but care.

I’m Deepika Prakash, a lifelong maker and the founder of PatternReview.com, a global sewing community with over half a million members. Through Threaded Space, I bring my love of textiles, repair, and mindful sewing into libraries, museums, and community spaces. For workshop enquiries, please contact me.
