Taken from an incomplete sketch which is believed to be an early idea for embroidery this design is attributed to William Morris. The Morris & Co. studio carefully evolved the original artwork into a complete all-over repeat honouring Morris's intent while finishing the composition. Where Morris had marked out stitches for embroidery the design team retained this delicate linework preserving the charm and honesty of the original drawing. Unique and authentic just like Morris. A full colour embroidered border has been added to the left-hand side nodding to the intended direction of the incomplete sketch which is thought to have been conceived as a border or stripe element. The central embroidered silhouette is fully covered in a freehand stitching style closely following the form of the original drawing. This panel seamlessly blends the storytelling between the initial concept and the final vision. Finished with a technique that feels truly handcrafted.

Although every effort has been made to ensure that the fabrics on this site are as close to the original cloth as possible, please be aware that the appearance of the fabric can vary from screen to screen. This is due to the inherent difficulties in creating accurate representations of fabric in a digital format. We would strongly recommend referring to our pattern books and swatches or requesting fabric samples before selecting a fabric.

 

After Treatments:

Sheen Upholstery Ltd strongly advises against the use of any further chemical treatment. Such treatments may adversely affect the wearing qualities and general performance of the fabric. We regret therefore, we are unable to accept responsibility for any fabrics treated by a third party in this way other than in its original manufacturing process.
