Engraved Thread Shop

Welcome to The Engraved Thread Shop

Welcome to Engraved Thread Shop — a creative space where heritage, craftsmanship, and contemporary design are woven together through bespoke tartan, textile art, and prints.

Founded by textile designer and master weaver Ashleigh Slater alongside engraving artist Helen Slater, The Engraved Thread blends traditional Scottish weaving culture with modern creative practice. From custom tartan commissions to expressive surface pattern designs, each piece is carefully developed with a strong focus on storytelling, colour, symbolism, and individuality.

Whether you are looking for a fully bespoke tartan design, printed fabrics, wedding textiles, scarves, artwork, or creative repeat prints, every project begins with an idea and evolves into something deeply personal and visually striking.

At The Engraved Thread, we believe tartan is more than pattern — it is identity, memory, history, and expression woven into cloth. Drawing inspiration from Scottish heritage, nature, symbolism, photography, and contemporary art, our work bridges traditional craftsmanship with bold modern creativity.

From meaningful wedding tartans and ceremonial textiles to abstract artistic prints layered with texture and symbolism, every design is approached with care, detail, and creative passion.
