11th November 2018
We love reading gift guides and as we approach December, there’s just so much that needs to get done. Writing a list for everyone that you need to buy gifts for but lets face it. Christmas isn’t all about presents and you want to enjoy the season. It’s pretty impossible though to enjoy spending time with everyone and going to all the parties if you’re stressed about everything you need to get done.
So, let’s get it done early so you can cut down on the time stood in the massive Christmas queues. It’s always boiling in the shops when you’ve got a big coat on and wouldn’t you rather be sat having a hot chocolate catching up with friends? We know we would!
We’ve separated this gift guide into who you’re buying for. The one who has everything. The one who’s always on the go. The one who loves to bake (or cook!) The one who loves to craft.
Let’s not waste anymore time and just get into it. We have an exclusive discount for our blog readers looking to do some early shopping, just use EARLYBIRD at checkout on our website for 10% off your order.
Our William Morris fabric is sold by the half metre. So whether you know a project that your crafty friend is working on or want to give them a little of everything, it’s a fabulous gift. We love the idea of doing a few different fabric designs and then wrap them up in a nice bow. If your craft loving friends are anything like us, they’ll never have enough fabric to play around with on various projects!
Our fabric, along with being in various designs is also available in different weights; cotton, cotton drill, heavy weight and pvc.

For someone who is always on the go, our William Morris tote bags are ideal. In various sizes and William Morris designs, there’s one for everyone and every occasion. From small bags to long handled bags, there’s so much choice. They can keep a small one in their handbag for when some impromptu shopping occurs. A long handled bag is ideal for keeping in the car for when they go shopping to be a little more eco friendly or even to carry on a day trip with everything in.
We’ve all got that friend that’s really hard to buy for. But don’t fear, we’ve got lots of ideas for them! Household textiles are something that we all love. Swapping out colours and designs really transforms a room so get them a whole new set! You’ll probably know the colour scheme of their kitchen/dining room so stick within that to make sure it matches the rest of their decor. Take a look through our entire collection to see which would be perfect for them.
If the person you’re gift buying for loves to bake or cook, get them an apron, oven glove and tea towel. It’s a thoughtful gift because they’ll know you’ve really thought of them and what they like to do. Mix the designs on each item or buy a complete set, they’ll think of you every time they use it. Bonus points if you wrap them up with a pretty festive baking mix!
There’s so much within our collection; multiple Morris designs in all different products. Take a look through the whole collection or browse by product to see which design stands out to you. Feel free to browse by design or by the product you would like to gift!
All our products are printed and manufactured in the United Kingdom. Our William Morris designs are all licensed designs and printed colour and size wise to our own specifications. If you’d like a sample of any of our fabric before you buy, just get in touch and we’d be happy to get samples out to you!

A really simple napkin fold for your Easter table! 🐣 We used a napkin ring but you could use ribbon or twine, whatever you’ve got! 🐰
Just fold the napkin into a triangle and roll up from the point until you can fold it in half to make the ears 🐇 You could put a little creme egg in there as an extra treat 🤎

The start of the Easter tablescapes this weekend 🐣 We cant resist a little rabbit napkin, so easy and so effective we can post a reel on how to do the napkin fold! 🐰 This is our pvc fabric in William Morris Brother Rabbit red which is perfect for on the table as it simply wipes clean so isn’t an issue for any spills 🧼
We know that seasonal tablescapes whilst looking amazing can often seem really expensive on Instagram so we wanted to prove that with a simple napkin fold and a few little inexpensive decor bits it can be wonderfully seasonal yet affordable and used every year - the carrots are from @poundland and the cute little sheep are from @sainsburys 🐑

We’re excited to announce our new range of fabrics, perfect for quilting 🪡 they are all from our exclusive French archive which dates from the late 1800s-early 1900s ⚜️ With a new range we were chatting about what to name each design, so as a female founded and run business, we decided to name them after some important women in our lives 🤍 We’re digitally printing this fabric so it’s amazing quality, but there’s limited stock of each design so let us know which designs you love ☺️

Why wouldn’t we celebrate William Morris’ birthday with one of our biggest sales of the year! Hurry, it’s tonight and tomorrow only, take 20% off everything on our website with code; BIRTHDAY 🌿
Born on this day in 1834, William Morris was an incredible talent. His designs are as timeless and popular today as ever, so long after they were designed 🎨 He also was a poet, writer and socialist activist who was involved in the arts and crafts movement and worked hard to keep traditional British textiles, he opened his own mill, Merton Abbey Mills 🌿 there’s so many interesting aspects of his life that he seemed to live many lives at once, when you’re that talented it must be hard to pick just one passion! 🌿 Happy Birthday William, thank you for all the stunning designs we print here in the UK just as he was passionate about all those years ago! 🇬🇧

A bit of a different one today, and we’re very amateur so don’t zoom in on our planting too much, but isn’t spring lovely tidying up the greenhouse ready to plant in? 🌱 Next up is getting some tomato plants and might even take on a dahlia or two! 🤍 If you’re a gardener and know how to keep this grape vine alive, do let us know how 😂
