About Western Isles Designs

Western Isles Designs

Handcrafted unique designs made in the Outer Hebrides from Harris tweed and natural products

I am a clothing designer, artist, jewellery maker and Harris tweed weaver. I craft my unique designs in my studio workshop on the Isle of Lewis using inspiration from the stunning landscape of the Outer Hebrides. Wild moorland, vivid beaches with turquoise seas, craggy mountains and rich wildlife. An ever changing vista.

My jewellery is even more 'from the Isle' as it is crafted from items I find on the local beaches. Shells, sea glass, pottery washed smooth by the waves, driftwood and the stunning local stone Lewisian Gneiss. Each piece truly unique as no shell, stone, glass or pottery fragment are ever quite the same!

Most of my clothing, accessory and home wear designs are one-off pieces which customers can use for inspiration to order their own bespoke products. From waistcoats to skirts, bags to coats everything I create can be crafted to order in your choice of tweed and fabric. We are all unique so why wear anything less!

I live with my wonderful ever tolerant husband plus the dogs Tess and Teddy add in two cats and two ferrets to drive us crazy and the house is always lively!
