Thistle and Fox
illustrations by Lauren Kelly on fabrics, wallpapers & handmade
I get asked every week if I can custom print other peoples designs or get their artwork ready for printing.
The short answer is: No, I don't do this.
Why? I'm a surface pattern designer for fabric & wallpaper. I don't personally handle the printing. It's all done by professional textile & wallpaper print labs. Thistle and Fox is my label for my fabrics, wallpaper, drawer liners and other handmade products featuring my own designs. I'm not interested in polishing up other designers work or turning your home photos into printable designs for fabric: there are other businesses that specialize in this.
I design prints that I would love to use based on ideas that I'm interested in pursuing for my own creative joy.
If you love them too then please check out my shop and help support my work. Looking for a particular print? Please reach out for help.
Please Note: I DO NOT SELL PLAIN UNPRINTED FABRICS. I am not a fabric wholesaler or printer. Please read my FAQ's.
