Spotlight On: Silken Favours

Okay so here is the designer in London that I told you earlier about -- I am so completely inspired by British textile designer Victoria "Vicki" Murdoch of Silken Favours right now! Seriously, the lady walks on water. Do you know her? She creates hand-drawn silk scarves inspired by nature and they are available exclusively at Liberty. You have to watch this video, she is positively lovely!

I'd love to buy a ton of them (I wish!), sew them together, and create a gorgeous curtain for my guest bedroom or stitch them on top of a quilt for duvet... Imagine? But I think I may just buy one and frame it for my bedroom...

Her designs could so easily work in the home -- throw cushions, shower curtains, I see a big future for this lady! I love the cushion that she made for one of her clients shown above. So sweet!

Here is a great article about her as well in the Daily Mail and this video shows her modeling for L.K. Bennett as part of their real women campaign. Gorgeous!
