So many of our ABSPD Alumni have been up to great things and we love sharing their fantastic news!
Wendy Kendall is a freelance surface pattern designer based in the UK. Since graduating with degree in print design she has gone on to work as a bedding/nursery designer for UK manfacturers. Her 10 years of experience within the interiors industry has given her trend & design knowledge that has been invaluable to her surface pattern designs. “I have a simplistic, graphic, clean design approach that mixes playful patterns/textures with quirky handrawn outlines. I love the use of bold colours against bright whites and I particularly enjoy creating designs for children”.
Wendy (as well as Phyllida) has produced a wonderful fabric collection with Dashwood Studio. A UK based textile company, Dashwood studio are an up & coming company who “specialise in producing beautiful, design-led fabric collections for today’s quilt and home-sewing communtities”. They are “passionate about what we do” & love “collaborating with the best design talent the UK has to offer”. Wendy’s ‘Petite Street’ collection has all around appeal & mixes illustrative hand-drawn styles with a graphic approach, with use of ‘strikingly modern colour palettes’. We love how her collection comes together & her use of colour is perfect for crafting with!
Wendy also has fabulous licensed collections with Wallpapered.com, S-Blinds & DENY Designs!
