Needlepoint Designers | Beth Russell

Beth Russell's needlepoint adaptions of William Morris designs are admired around the world. She remains faithful to the spirit of William Morris - who in the latter part of the 19th century produced designs for textiles, wallpapers and carpets - while allowing her own creativity to find expression through her choice of colors and the way she adapts these designs for needlepoint kit production. The designs are first sketched or painted and then each part is worked many times on canvas before the final shapes and colours are decided.
