About Us

About Us

We are a mom daughter duo who loves to spend time together so building a small business together seemed like the perfect adventure. Genetic Threads is about as family owned and run as you can get; we get our family involved in all aspects of the business from creating our market displays to helping us choose colour combinations for our creations.
Genetic Threads was created when we found out a close family friend was expecting a baby. I suggested that with moms’ years of sewing experience and her sewing talent we should try to make an outfit for the new baby. Making the outfit together gave us such joy and we knew we wanted to make more. We then set out to find unique, quality, and Canadian fabrics to create simple, versatile, and affordable baby clothing and accessories. Now mom takes care of the sewing and I manage our social media platforms helping out with fabric selection and cutting whenever possible.
