Firefly Designs is a family run business based on a farm in the heart of Devon in England. We design tapestries based on the art of cultures from around the world, both ancient and modern, ranging from Roman to Mayan to naive artists in Australia. We spend considerable time in each country researching its history and the traditions and beliefs of its people. Also of course we study its art, present and past, and if possible work alongside traditional artists. 

Below, you can read about our experiences in these countries:

South American Tapestry or Needlepoint Collection
First in a new series based on South America

For a textile artist South America is heaven on earth! Men and women found weaving or knitting clothes and rugs of the most beautiful colours and designs. We have spent so many hours just sitting in mountain villages watching these lovely people, and have returned home inspired.

Turkey Tapestry or Needlepoint Designs

Turkey

You cannot travel in Turkey without being aware of carpets! From Istanbul through Anatolia, to southern and eastern Turkey we found wonderful, hand-knotted, brilliantly coloured carpets, even in the smallest villages. Seeing the dye vats where the colours were mixed was incredibly interesting. Once dyed, the wools were hung up to dry ready for the local women to knot their traditional designs. It was well worth getting off the beaten track to visit the mountain villages where each community have their own particular designs.
