The Textile Blog


How I have not come across this informative blog before is puzzling me, however I will certainly be putting in the reading time from now on. The wonderful blog in question is The Textile Blog by Cornwall based John Hopper who himself is a trained textile designer now writing on the subject of textile, interior and general design history. So if you love reading historical information, social history, and finding out about influential designers from over the last three centuries then like me you will be spending quite a while here.

Urban Fabric



I have spent quite a while today looking over the amazing street scenes by textile artist Clare Lane. I love the vibrancy of these print and stitch pieces. Take a look at Urban Fabric.

Rebecca Ellen


Here are some things I am loving on this sunny Monday morning:
Beautiful wallpaper and artwork combining print with embroidery by Rebecca Ellen.
This short story by Thomas Plaskitt & New Think Books looks interesting.
A sneak peek into the studio of the very talented textile designer Teresa Green.
