Excell Quilts are designed and handcrafted in the Somerset countryside by textile artist Kayleigh Excell.

Combining the traditional craft of quilting with modern design, her work is inspired by the natural world.

Since 2018, Kayleigh has been creating quilts that bring colour, warmth, and a sense of wanderlust to everyday spaces.

My story

After years of living in London and working in the corporate world, my life took a wonderful turn when I became a mother. While caring for my young children, I discovered quilting and taught myself the craft during quiet moments. What began as a creative outlet quickly blossomed into a true passion, and eventually, a business.

Inspired by landscapes, my designs feature curved, organic elements that echo the natural world. Now settled in the peaceful countryside with my partner and children, I’m more connected than ever to my work. Each piece is created with the intention of bringing a sense of calm, warmth, and wanderlust into the homes they become part of.
