Lily is a South Coast-based textile artist and creative business owner, specialising in bold, hand-made tufted rugs, wall hangings, mirrors, and even fashion pieces.
She studied Textiles at The Arts University Bournemouth, graduating with a BA (Hons) and a specialisation in print design, screen-printing, and tufting. It was during her final year that she discovered tufting, quickly developing a passion for the craft that inspired her to turn it into a business.
Her work combines cut-pile and loop-pile techniques, creating rich textures and depth across her designs. Colour plays a key role in her process, with a particular love for bright, uplifting shades that bring positivity and joy into everyday spaces.
Every piece is carefully handmade, with a focus on quality and detail. From bespoke commissions to ready-made collections, Lily’s aim is always to create unique, vibrant artwork that people can connect with and enjoy in their own spaces.
Alongside making, she’s passionate about sharing her skills. From her studio, Lily runs a range of tufting workshops, inviting others to experience the creativity and joy of the craft for themselves.
