About Emma Purdie Design

This website showcases the original vibrant textiles produced by Emma Purdie Design. Her designs can be used to decorate a space or be worn on the body.

Emma's designs include scarves, bags, cushions, purses and lampshades. Each one is uniquely handmade and carefully constructed to the highest quality.

The original work is created by Emma is screen-printed using various techniques and processes, such as Devore, discharge printing, reactive resist and Procion dying, all with an intense focus on colour.

She enjoys manipulating fabrics together, using many different textures, weights and finishes, then fusing them together by stitching, bonding and layering. Once combined this creates interesting surfaces to print, paint or stitch upon.
