The Story of Winder~Mere Maid

WinderMere~Maid was born from my love of the outdoors, the freedom of open water, and the shared joy of wild swimming with friends and my brother, Andrew. Inspired by the beauty of Lake Windermere—its ever-changing reflections, rippling waters, and the deep sense of peace it brings—this design captures the essence of those moments spent gliding through cool, clear lakes, surrounded by nature. The exhilaration of plunging into the water, the laughter shared between strokes, and the quiet connection to the landscape all find their way into the flowing lines and organic patterns of this fabric.

Each element of WinderMereMaid is hand-drawn, echoing the movement of water, the silhouettes of swimmers, and the delicate details of reeds and ripples. The design is not just a celebration of wild swimming but a tribute to the bonds formed in those serene and adventurous moments. Whether draped around you as a towel, on a sofa as a cushion or bringing warmth to a space as wallpaper, WinderMereMaid carries the spirit of open water, adventure, and the simple, profound joy of being immersed in nature.
