Swarm Pillow

A very traditional Anglo cotton print that I’ve embellished with a swarm of french knot fleas.

The other red and cream Euro shams I made from Rose Cumming’s Toile de Indienne now sadly discontinued.

A new commission from the client whose pillow I crafted from Nana Joseph’s sweater.
Click on the photos for a clearer view– I don’t know what’s up today. 

This is from a favorite Pendelten Shirt–a gift for her sister.
The back is a linen cotton. It’s 18 x 18 and has an invisible zipper.

I have a new label

I’ve been doing commissions of pillows out of vintage clothing–old to something new- that otherwise might just stay folded in a drawer, hanging in a closet, or be boxed up in the attic. Hopefully the things that we own are beautiful and having meaning.
