John Greeting Card by Mrs. Stonely for Liberty London

Step into the nostalgic charm of Liberty with John, a quintessential 1930s ditsy floral featuring a delicate dog rose motif. First created by the prolific Mrs Stonely — formerly recognised as D.S. — she was the designer behind some of Liberty’s most beloved Classics, including Betsy and Wiltshire Blossom.

This exclusive greeting card has been designed by Mrs Stonely exclusively for William Morris Gallery & Liberty London for our Women in Print: 150 years of Liberty Textiles exhibition.  Taking inspiration from famous fabric designs from Liberty London's archive this colourful greeting card is blank inside and printed in Sussex on fsc certified paper.

Carrying on her remarkable legacy, John echoes Liberty’s signature 1930s florals, hand-drawn with a distinctive interrupted line that gives the pattern its gentle rhythm and unmistakable character. The design beautifully reflects the intricate craftsmanship and artistic vision that have defined Liberty for over a century.

Now part of the Liberty Tana Capsule, Mrs Stonely appears alongside Cassia Pru, Colleen Stacey and Lawrence Poppies across a beautifully curated range

About the Exhibition 

William Morris Gallery will present Women in Print: 150 years of Liberty Textiles. Conceived in partnership with Liberty Fabrics on the occasion of the design house’s 150th anniversary, this major exhibition will highlight the pivotal role and contributions of women textile designers.

Tracing the rich history of Liberty Fabrics, the exhibition will survey the evolving influence and status of women in textiles over the past 150 years. Women in Print will bring together iconic patterns by designers such as Althea McNish, Susan Collier and Sarah Campbell, and Lucienne Day, alongside previously overlooked names, celebrating how women have been — and continue to be — at the heart of Liberty’s creative innovations and ongoing relevance today. It will feature over 100 works, spanning garments, fabric, original designs, film and historic photographs.

Women in Print is curated by Rowan Bain, Principal Curator of Collections and Programme and Róisín Inglesby, Curator William Morris Gallery. Part of the Gallery’s 75th Anniversary Year programme, the exhibition will be accompanied by an exciting programme of events and activities at the Gallery.
