The perfectly imperfect world of Tilda

Tilda is a fabric brand founded by Norwegian designer Tone Finnanger in 1999, best known for whimsical naive characters and charming fabric design. There is a certain attitude to life in Tilda’s world, whimsical and romantic, like a ball gown worn with wellies – perfectly imperfect!

Tilda products are produced and distributed by Tilda Fabrics and are available in most of Europe as well as USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, China, Japan, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea, Taiwan and Thailand. Book titles are published by David and Charles Ltd. Tilda books have been translated into more than 18 languages.
