Welcome to Cargo Threads – Where Every Stitch Tells a Story

Hello and welcome! I’m so glad you’ve found your way here. This little corner of the internet is where I share the heart and craft behind Cargo Stitch Co. While our bags may look simple at first glance, each one begins with a story, a sketch, and the careful choice of fabrics. This blog is where I get to share those stories with you.

Who We Are

I’m Esther, the maker behind Cargo Stitch Co. Sewing has been a part of my life for over 30 years — from quilting at the kitchen table to designing durable, functional bags. My background in trucking and logistics also shaped this journey. Just like every shipment carries its own story, every bag I make is stitched with purpose and meant to travel alongside you.

Cargo Stitch Co. is all about small-batch, handcrafted pieces. No assembly lines, no mass production — just thoughtful design, careful sewing, and details that make each bag feel one-of-a-kind.

What You’ll Find Here

This blog, Cargo Threads, is our space to slow down and share the stories behind the work. Here’s a glimpse of what you can expect:

Behind the Seams – a peek into my sewing studio and process.

Creative Journaling & Inspiration – because every maker thrives on a spark of creativity.

Join the Journey

I want this blog to feel like a conversation — a place where you can connect with the making process, ask questions, and maybe even get inspired for your creative adventures.
