Stitched Slowly

A Modern Creative Studio
by Paige Plihal

I'm a pattern maker, educator, marketer, fiber artist, and all-around textile enthusiast with a love for storytelling. I create high-quality PDF and projector sewing patterns, offer bespoke sewing and knitting experiences for groups or individuals, and share fiber knowledge and inspiration on my blog and Instagram. I’m passionate about empowering fellow creatives to explore new techniques and build skills in mindful making.

Sewing first captured my heart 30 years ago, I also have 15 years of experience teaching and creating educational programs for the babywearing industry. I studied pattern making and design at San Diego City College, building on my Bachelor’s in Business.

Stitched Slowly is my cozy online home, my studio just north of downtown San Diego is welcome to all.

Hi, I’m Paige
