About Me

MJS Designs prides itself in providing contemporary designer textile pieces for fashion, accessories and art unlike any you have seen before.

Michelle Straker, the sole designer, individually creates each piece within the collection. The original work created by Michelle is made using various techniques and processes, such as Freehand machine embroidery, felting, and several dyeing techniques by using an innovative way of working with yarns, merino wool.

The most striking aspect of the products, whether they are scarves, purses or bags, is the use of colour and the unique, handmade textures which are  carefully constructed to the highest quality

Bridal, bespoke and art pieces can be commissioned with close consultation and guidance provided to ensure the customer gets something unique but more importantly that is the perfect colour and shape for them.
