Mary “May” Morris was an influential designer, teacher and pioneer of art embroidery whose accomplishments were often overshadowed by those of her father, William Morris. She embraced the free-form style of embroidery that emphasized freehand stitching, delicate shading and self-expression. This collection reflects the work and style of May and William – elegant prints inspired by nature colored in rich, vibrant hues.
