JC Threads - Faith Based Clothing

Christian T-Shirts & Hoodies designed to help you proclaim your faith.

Inspired by Faith, Created with Purpose

I founded JC Threads in 2010 to offer a more mature range of Christian T-shirts that reflect my walk with God. Each design is inspired by new revelations of who He is in my life, and I aim to share these insights to encourage others in their faith.

In addition to clothing, my creativity expanded into handmade pottery through The Pottery Shed. Each piece I create carries the same heart and message, reflecting God’s love and purpose. My pottery serves as another way to share God’s grace and truth with others. Whether through a communion set, a unique commission, or a pottery class, I want these pieces to remind people of His presence in their daily lives.

Through both JC Threads and The Pottery Shed, I hope to bless others and glorify the One who gave me this gift. My goal is to create products that empower Christians to stand firm in their identity in Christ, drawing from the truth in God's Word, and resisting the enemy's lies.

If you’ve accepted Christ, remember that you are a child of God, purchased with the precious blood of Jesus. He has a plan for you, loves you deeply, and nothing can separate you from His love. You are forgiven, priceless, and your future is secure in eternity.

“I began pottery with Gina during a tough time of anxiety and depression, and her encouragement to explore my creativity has been invaluable. Her classes start with mindful meditation and continue with supportive, informative instruction. They’ve been incredibly beneficial for my mental health, providing satisfying outcomes and improved focus in other areas. Highly recommended.”

“I had my first pottery class with Gina and thoroughly enjoyed it. She explained everything clearly, making the basics seem easy. Even though I dropped my first piece, Gina rescued it, and the final pot turned out "imperfectly perfect." I especially loved the mindfulness aspect—molding clay with soothing music and light conversation was wonderfully relaxing.”

“Gina is one of the best artists and teachers. A 3-hour-pottery class with her went like 30minutes. It was creative and therapeutic with relaxing music and the peaceful meditation to begin. Thanks and look forward to seeing you again soon.”

We moved to West Sussex a year ago, and starting a new life during COVID was challenging. As things reopened, my husband found Gina’s pottery classes, which I’d always wanted to try. From the first class, Gina made me feel at ease with a calming meditation session. The three-hour classes offer a perfect escape, allowing me to forget my worries while focusing on pottery. Gina’s passion and support ensure that everyone leaves with a piece they’re proud of. With drinks and delicious homemade cakes provided, each week I come home thrilled with my creations and have signed up for another set of classes. Gina is a genuine, lovely teacher, and I highly recommend her classes.
