Pat Albeck, who died in September 2017, was a prolific and well-known textile and homewear designer, affectionately known as 'the Queen of the Tea Towel'. Her obituary appeared in The Times and the Guardian, and she was the guest on Desert Island Discs a few years ago. Pat started work in the 1950s and continued working throughout her life. This book shows 100 of Pat's tea towel designs, and her son Matthew Rice gives a fascinating insight into the design process for each towel.
