Designed by William Morris in 1876 as a cotton chintz, African Marigold was block-printed by Thomas Wardle using natural Prussian blue dyeThis interpretation for needlepoint recaptures the faded look of Morris's preliminary watercolor sketch which is in the collection of the 
William Morris Gallery at Walthamstow.

Beth Russell took the center of the lovely watercolor for the cushion, 
and later the whole painting was slightly adapted to turn it from a 
repeating pattern to an almost symmetrical rug, with a leaf border added
