My Story
The Slow Stitch Company is a Los Angeles based brand owned by Maren McGuire that designs and creates classic and eclectic, one-of-a-kind arrows and objects for the home.
The company’s name hails from the late ‘60s San Francisco music scene, where the owner’s mother, Shelley, created one-off leather and denim patchwork clothing pieces for bands such as Jefferson Airplane. Her materials were repurposed, a practice which Maren carries on, sourcing most of her materials from vintage and seconds lots. As the spirit of Maren’s work is so connected to her mother’s, she’s adopted the name of the company. The Slow Stitch lives on!
THE CREATOR :
Maren McGuire was born in California. She likes:
The smell of freshly cut wood, quartz points,
rebuilding computers, tiny house + integral living,
high waisted denim, succulents, goats,
traveling, and running barefoot on her family’s farm in Oregon.
THE COLLECTION :
The brand’s universe is wild, earthy, and authentic.
The designs and colors are inspired by numerous influences:
The maker’s travels, nature, classic patterns, the summer of love,
the desert, and the bohemian lifestyle.
Color and design are an obsession.
Thank you!
