Sophie Allport is a British homeware brand built on hand-drawn illustration: hares, hens, bees, sheep, dogs and other British-countryside animals, drawn with a warm, characterful line that makes the prints instantly recognisable. Those designs are licensed, which is why you can order a made-to-measure blind in Sheep or the leaping hares today across several retailers, alongside the children's prints that round out the range.
Sophie Allport blinds are sold by 3 UK retailers we track, from £16.14, as roller and roman blinds. The same named designs turn up across these shops at near-identical prices - a strong sign it is the same licensed cloth - so the choice comes down to price, construction and fitting rather than the fabric itself.
The thing worth knowing before you buy
The Sophie Allport patterns are licensed designs, not a single retailer's own range. The same print - the same artwork, at the same scale - is supplied to several shops, who each sell it under their own range name and pricing. So when you find the same Sophie Allport design at more than one retailer, it is almost certainly the same cloth, and the sensible move is to compare on price, construction and fitting rather than which shop has the "real" fabric. They all do.
Below, each pattern lists the retailers we track that currently sell it, ordered by price from low to high, with a link through to each.
Sheep
Sheep is the Sophie Allport print most people picture: a gentle flock scattered across a plain ground, characterful without being loud. It is the brand's signature, and it suits a kitchen, a utility or a country bedroom - anywhere you want a little warmth and a smile rather than a bold statement.
Carried by 3 of the retailers we track:
- Unbeatable Blinds from £16.14
- Blinds By Post from £20.57
- Terrys Fabrics from £23.77
Hare
The hares - leaping across the cloth - are the other design that says "Sophie Allport" at a glance. A touch more graphic than the sheep, they make an easy countryside statement in a sitting room or hallway.
Carried by 3 of the retailers we track:
- Unbeatable Blinds from £16.14
- Blinds By Post from £20.57
- Terrys Fabrics from £23.77
Bee
At the quieter end, the Bee print scatters small bees over a soft ground, reading almost as a texture from across the room. It is the natural choice when you want the Sophie Allport pedigree without a large animal motif dominating, and it sits especially well in a kitchen or garden room.

How to choose between them
Because the fabric is shared, your decision is really about the look and the build. Start with the motif - sheep and hares for the classic countryside feel, foxes or dogs for something warmer, the bees or dragonflies for a quieter near-texture, the bears and balloons for a child's room. Then pick the construction: a roman shows the print flat and whole, a roller shows it tensioned and slightly cropped, and a blackout lining matters more than the design in a bedroom. Only then compare prices - and that is what the lists above are for.
