Create and dream in textiles

Smitten is a place to explore, create and engage in the world of textile printing. Come and be inspired by the work of respected textile designer Katie Smith and her team. Dive into colour and patterning through a textile workshop, or find a distinct homeware. Ask us to consult with you in the choice of colour and textiles for your home, or for bespoke art or furnishings. We’ll help you express your creative threads.
