Made to Measure Roller Blinds

Do you sell block-printed Roller Blind fabric?

Our Hand Printed blind fabrics have an unsophisticated edge that we find really beautiful. Close your eyes and imagine the precision and patience involved in creating something so unique. I love the distinctive marks and textures created by the blocks which are completely different from the smooth finish of conventional mechanically printed fabrics. 

These designs were originally block printed and then the marks were transferred to silk screens and that is now how they are produced. They make beautiful Roller Blinds and give a room a really rustic and gentle feel.

There are three different hand printed fabric designs to play with – Life and Eternity Detail, a traditional paisley fertility symbol, and a Simple Ticking Detail stripe.

Other designs in this style are the Little Fern and Wild Fern patterns. The Little Fern has coloured backgrounds, ranging from Tomato red, Ochre yellow, Moss green, and Mallow pink; we have Scree and Charcoal greys of course, which help to balance everything out! The Wild Fern design is on a soft cream background and again, comes in a lovely bright mix of colours.

Pros for choosing Roller Blinds:

GREAT FOR INSIDE A RECESS – Roller Blinds are a great option if you want to install a blind inside a recess because they are really easy to fit, lightweight, practical, easily adjustable with beaded chains (or ivory cord), and visually very stylish.

PELMETS - if you have your blind inside a recess, you can choose to have a smart, perfectly pattern matched pelmet that covers the roll at the top revealing the reverse lining; this is approximately 11 cm deep. It has revolutionised the use of Roller Blinds, making them much more attractive and usable in all rooms of a house!

MAXIMUM LIGHT – if you want to allow in as much natural light as possible, Roller Blinds may be the better option over Roman Blinds. With Roller Blinds, the fabric rolls up at the top of your window and will take up about 9 cm of space.

CENTRAL PULL – with a Roller Blind you can have a centre pull which can be handy on a window behind the kitchen sink. This comes with an ivory coloured cord and wooden acorn.

LOWER MAINTENANCE – once you have pulled up a Roman Blind you sometimes have to handle the folds as they can get caught in the cords, you don’t have this problem with Roller Blinds. It is just one piece of fabric that is adjusted with either a continuous beaded chain to either the left or right hand side of the blind, or as previously mentioned, a centre pull.

TREATMENT OPTIONS - We offer three different finishings on our Roller Blinds: Laminate, Blackout, and Processed. The laminated backing is a lining bonded onto the face of the fabric (no lamination takes place to the face fabric). Blackout is an off-white lining, which again is bonded to the fabric but is ideal for privacy. And Processed is just the fabric on its own with that has a clear stiffening spray applied to it for rigidness.

STYLISH IN DESIGN - You have a lot of creative freedom when it comes to the finished look of your Roller Blind. In addition to a pelmet, you can also add a 5 cm contrasting bottom border. Any of our other fabrics can be used for this, for example Gypsy Garland in Dove, with a bottom border in Stockholm Stripe - Dove, Winter. You could also opt for a Plain Linen Union in Saffron border instead, to go with the Gypsy, depending on the other colours in your room. The choice is yours to coordinate as you see fit!

Also if you can’t reach the top of the window at all easily, a roller blind with a pelmet to hide the roll might be the right choice as you will have no need to reach to the top ever…maximum size for roller and roman blinds is 240cm x 240c
