The Orla Kiely roller blind range at Terrys Fabrics is the retailer's licensed Orla Kiely collection, made to measure in 187 printed colourways and starting from £17.67. These are roller blinds: a flat panel of printed fabric on a tube, the simplest blind style, with no tilt and a wipe-clean surface. With so many colourways, the range is really a large set of distinct Orla Kiely prints - the designer's signature stem motifs, scribbles and graphic shapes - rather than colours of one plain cloth, so choosing is mostly a matter of pattern and palette.
Who it suits
A printed roller suits a window meant to add character rather than disappear, and this is one of the broadest printed collections you will find in a single range. The Orla Kiely prints carry the designer's distinctive mid-century graphic style, which works in kitchens, living rooms, bedrooms and home offices alike. Because a roller is a single flat panel, the print reads clearly across the whole blind when it is down, so the pattern becomes the feature of the window.
The fabric is light-filtering rather than blackout, softening daylight and giving daytime privacy without shutting light out fully. For a bedroom needing complete darkness a blackout-lined blind would be the better choice; for living and family spaces the filtering finish is usually what is wanted.
The colours
187 colours available
With well over a hundred and fifty colourways, the collection spans a wide palette, weighted towards blues and greys with strong runs of green, pink, yellow and red and smaller sets of black, cream, orange, brown and purple. The names point to the prints themselves rather than flat shades - Linear Stem, Solid Stem, Multi Stem and Jumbo Stem variants in tones such as Marine, Seagrass, Persimmon, Sunflower and Whale, alongside graphic designs like Scribble, Love Hearts Multi and Kimono Multi. Many appear in a translucent version as well as a solid one, changing how much light passes through the same print. Because the collection is so large and the prints vary in scale, the grid below is the best way to see what is available, and a sample is worth requesting before committing to a full-sized blind so you can judge the print in your own light.

There is a single standard fitting across the collection, so the from-price applies whichever print you choose. As a licensed designer collection it sits above a plain unbranded roller on price, which reflects the print rather than any difference in the blind mechanism.
How it compares
Against a plain roller, this collection trades a higher price for the Orla Kiely prints - the mechanism and upkeep are identical, the difference is the patterned fabric. Against a roman blind in a similar print, the roller is simpler and cheaper, sitting flat against the window rather than gathering into folds, and is easier to wipe down. Against a venetian or vertical, a roller offers no tilt and no slats to leak light at the edges, just a clean printed panel that rolls up out of the way. The sheer breadth of the collection is its main distinction: few ranges offer this many prints in one style.
A note on care
Roller fabric is low-maintenance: a regular dust with a soft brush or the upholstery tool of a vacuum keeps it clean, and most marks lift with a damp cloth and a little mild detergent dabbed gently rather than rubbed, so the print is not disturbed. Let the blind dry fully before rolling it back up, and avoid soaking a printed cloth, which can mark it. Keep the tube and bracket fixings clear of dust so the blind rolls evenly.

These are the same designs rather than guaranteed identical blinds - one retailer may weave a jacquard where another prints the pattern, and colourways and fittings vary. Check the specific design, colour and fitting at each retailer before buying.
