Your name in thread, seen before a single stitch

YABA, LAGOS. Walk past the computer village and the bookshops and you will hear our machines before you see the sign. Six heads stitch from eight in the morning, turning plain cotton into gifts that people keep for decades.

Every order starts the same way: with a name. Some are short, some come with a date, a verse or a grandmother’s signature taken from an old letter. We read each one aloud twice before it goes on the machine, because a misspelt name is the one mistake thread cannot hide.

Most personal orders are ready in two working days, corporate runs in four to seven. You can watch your piece being stitched at the counter, or we send it by dispatch anywhere in Lagos.
