William Morris in 1883
with birds drawn by Philip Webb

Document colourway

Fabric:
54" wide 100% cotton

This design was inspired by the Morris family's attempts to grow strawberries at their home at Kelmscott, but being thwarted by thrushes who would creep under the netting to eat the berries. Morris insisted that the birds be left
undisturbed.
Full 54" wide fabric illustrated.
