Designs

As a student, she entered several drawings in the National Competition of Schools of Art in 1911. The Victoria and Albert Museum holds several of these drawings, including a pattern featuring green parakeets with flowers and fruit, monkeys and squirrels, and pink and green parrots. In 2025, the latter, now titled "Parrots", was adapted and printed on a range of items, including aprons and oven gloves, for sale in the Victoria and Albert Museum Shop.

Three designs published by Morris & Co. are attributed to Allington, as Kersey: "Arbutus" (1913), "Verdure" (1913), and "Bird and Pomegranate" (c. 1926). Allington is also known to have created additional designs in the form of sketches.
