William Morris designed Strawberry Thief in 1883 after watching thrushes raid the strawberry beds in his kitchen garden at Kelmscott Manor. Producing it took him years, because he insisted on the difficult indigo-discharge method instead of cheaper chemical dyes. It became the most popular furnishing fabric he ever made and is still the design most people picture when they think of Arts and Crafts.
