Eleanor Pritchard produces a woven blanket collection each winter. The designs are developed and sampled by Eleanor on her dobby loom in the London studio and the production runs are then woven up at a small traditional mill in Wales. All of the blankets are woven in 100% pure new wool and have a blanket stitch edging.
All of the design work, sampling and bespoke hand-weaving is carried out at Eleanor’s studio in South East London. The studio is open to the public twice a year, and can be visited by appointment at other times
A love of pattern, colour and texture runs through all of Eleanor’s work. Her designs celebrate traditional British fabrics, reinterpreting them in a contemporary context. Her practice includes large-scale projects, bespoke and commission work, mill-woven design and design consultancy.
Alongside her own work, Eleanor is also an associate lecturer at Central Saint Martins.
From 2002 to 2004 she contributed hand-woven lengths for Christian Lacroix Haute Couture.
