About Me

A woman ( Bonnie Kirkwood) working on a weaving loom with colorful fabric, in a craft room with spools of thread and weaving supplies.

A graduate and former weave tutor of the Royal College of Art, I have worked extensively as a textile designer and fabric product co-ordinator for a wide range of companies, including prestigious fashion houses, interior design companies, design studios and commercial and couture fabric mills.

As an award-winning designer commissioned by organisations and private individuals across the world, I have gained a comprehensive knowledge of delivering inspirational handwoven designs made using traditional and commercial production methods. I have championed these methods as a visiting lecturer at numerous UK universities, guiding students through their textile design degrees.

After providing bespoke woven textile design and fabric consultancy services to Made.com, Native Design and Italian mills, I have developed a collection of limited-edition interior textiles with sustainability at their core.

The collection includes sumptuous luxury throws and cushions, crafted from the finest merino lambswool and Donegal wool to bring warmth, comfort, and timeless elegance to the home. Each design is made in the UK and woven to my specifications by Bristol Weaving Mill, combining exceptional craftsmanship with contemporary design.
