William De Morgan
William De Morgan was an English ceramicist, designer and novelist. A lifelong friend of William Morris, he designed tiles, stained glass and furniture for his company Morris & Co.
Many of his tiles featured fantastical birds and animals, designed to create intricate patterns when laid together.
We've applied several of De Morgan's classic designs to our needlepoint cushions and kits.

“Stitching allows me to use a totally different part of my brain and personality. I can move away from the more difficult reflections and anxieties and feel creative and purposeful. This means I no longer feel that my life has come to a halt and that I am of no use to anyone else.”- Tom, FCW Stitcher -
