Before establishing his own company, William De Morgan (16th November 1839 - 15th January 1917), worked for William Morris and Co., for whom his main contribution was, initially, stained glass.

William de Morgan counted cross stitch designs:

• Merton Abbey
• Floral Collection Blue Colourway
• Floral Collection - Heritage Colourway
• Floral Collection Pink Colourway
• Floral Collection - Rose Colourway
• Sunflowers
• Bardon Mill Owl
• Chelsea
• Parrots at a Fountain

His main interest, however, lay in the design of lustre ware pottery and 'art tiles', in which he was strongly influenced by the art of the Medieval period, particularly illuminated manuscripts, and by the Italian Rennaissance and Middle Eastern design.

We offer nearly two dozen different counted cross stitch designs based on the work of William de Morgan, all available as kits or pattern packs.

We also have a free cross stitch pattern based on a design by William de Morgan.
