Welcome to alisonhorwood.com, a site for sharing and selling my handwoven creations.
Weaving has been my hobby for over 20 years and has provided me with endless explorations on how colour, texture and pattern can interplay and create unique effects. I could spend my whole life experimenting with the possibilities but I've decided to focus in on producing artful items that will enhance people's lives.

Having formal training in both textile design and interior design has helped me develop an eye for colour and balance as well as a desire to incorporate handcrafted items in home decor projects. I strongly believe that the things we use in our day to day lives should give us joy and that objects made by hand have a certain "energy" that can do just that.
I am available for private commissions for handweaving as well as home decor consultations. Please feel free to contact me if you have a project you would like to discuss.
