Ready to Wear Clothing, Garment Kits, Patterns, and Textiles

Third Born offers high quality, timeless wardrobe staples through three different approaches: Ready to wear (RTW) clothing, patterns, and garment kits. New styles will be released first though RTW pieces, then offered in the form of Patterns and Garment Kits. The aim is to accelerate beginner sewers into the possibility of constructing their own timeless, minimalist wardrobes. Third Born is a small business located in the Kennebec Valley of Maine.

RTW

Our clothing and accessories are handmade with high quality textiles. Textiles are sourced considering environmental impact, sustainability, and durability. We aim to limit waste, including utilizing made-to-order inventory practices, whenever possible.

Garment Kits

All the materials you need to sew Third Born Clothing in the comfort of your own home. Garment Kits come with full size paper pattern, textile, thread, as well as other materials need to complete garment (such as interfacing, elastic or buttons).  Instructions are provided in PDF format in effort to save paper as well as link you to in depth online tutorials. Instructions teach the fundamentals of the garment construction process and walk you how to complete the garment from start to finish (from the fabric pre-wash to the final iron). 

Patterns

Patterns are offered to those who would like to source their own materials for Third Born designs. Patterns are currently available as PDF downloads and full-scale paper patterns that ship via mail (currently ship in US only). Instructions teach the fundamentals of the garment construction process and walk you how to complete the garment from start to finish (from the fabric pre-wash to the final iron). Each pattern will build upon each other in terms of skill level, creating a garment construction curriculum, all from the comfort of your own home.
