About the family


Topstitch isn’t here to shout; it’s here to sew. Each letter is loosely threaded with the uneven edges, soft curves, and imperfect charm of real hand embroidery. It’s a texture you can almost feel—a little wobbly, a little whimsical, and entirely human.

This isn’t an everyday workhorse. Topstitch shines brightest in small doses, when it can bring just the right amount of cozy, handcrafted warmth to your project. Use it for a short headline on a craft fair poster, a label for a homemade jam jar, or a few words stitched into a seasonal greeting card. In larger sizes and high-contrast colors, every loop and knot stands out; in smaller sizes, it melts into a subtle, tactile pattern. Topstitch loves company. Pair it with a clean sans-serif to balance its busy texture, or layer it over a fabric-like background for extra depth. It’s the typeface equivalent of a handmade quilt—something to be appreciated up close, made with care, and meant to be enjoyed in the right setting.

From sewing blogs and scrapbooking projects to artisan packaging and folk art features, Topstitch adds a thread of personality that’s impossible to fake. Use it sparingly, use it thoughtfully, and it will reward you with warmth that no vector-perfect font could match.
