Made by people like you

Five makers, ages 8 to 65, on what it feels like to thread a piece.

J

“I would 100% recommend this”

I had a great time creating this portrait. It's a different type of meditative art that I can actually see as a hobby.

S

“I can finally just chill”

It's amazing. I go into a deep sense of calm and relaxation. It feels like nothing's going on outside in the world or in my mind, and thoughts clear up as I loop. I want to give my mom one.

R

“The whole world around you seems to disappear”

This is really quite relaxing. I did a portrait of my grandfather, so now I can feel his presence whenever I look at the artwork. Makes a very unique and thoughtful gift for anyone at any age. I look forward to my next one.

G

“It's really calming”

It is a lot of fun. It's really cool, it's not hard at all to do. I really liked it. You get to focus on one thing. Get it if you like art.

K

“It was my favorite part of this week”

I had so much fun with my kit. It just calmed me down after my stressful work days, and now I have this beautiful piece of art. Now I'm obsessed and I want something to look forward to after work again.

Good questions, clear answers

If you're wondering it, someone else already asked it.

Yes - a clear photo with a close-up subject in good contrast makes a strong piece. Faces, pets, and simple compositions work beautifully.

Upload a photo and the app turns it into a numbered sequence. It speaks aloud and shows each step, then flows to the next at whatever pace you set - line by line until you're done. You can tap to advance, or autoplay.

No, it's easy. If you can count to 240, you can Threaditate. The app accounts for everything else.

Most pieces take 6 hours, but can be finished in 5 or take 8, depending on detail. Plenty of makers spread that across a few evenings. The app saves your place - it's ready whenever you are. You deserve moments of calm, take as many as often as you'd like.

The loom, thread, spool holder, precision wand, numbered paper guide, wooden phone stand, mounting accessories, the easel-box, and app access - no subscription ever.
