I am Vicky Murphy , artist, seamstress and creator of John Died designs. I’m pretty obsessed with reusing and re creating something from disowned, un-wanted and un-loved fabrics and clothing. I strive to reduce, reuse and recycle as much as possible, never buying new, not even the fabric my art is printed on by my partner Steve.

When coming up with John Died 5 years ago I wanted to take whimsical art and make it wearable for all ages and genders. But it being practical, functional and as environmentally friendly as possible. John Died has grown into a business that supports my family and I’m hoping it continues to grow as new designs and one of a kind combinations continue to be created by me.
