With stories.

I think there is something lovely about creating a treasure. I am making us a new range of cushions for our lounge room, from materials with a story. The red and blue fabric is from a Masai blanket from East Africa (though I picked it up via my local op-shop), and the purple fabric is from a Thai Airways blanket (complete with tag that says it's not for personal possession)... Ah, I love how these stories give deeper value to each item.



And after Birthday-partying this weekend I can now add another cushion made with oodles of love and joy for our fabulous friend, from a classic Men's tweed jacket. Oh, I think the best features of this cushion are the fabulous vintage buttons, and the extremely versatile pockets!
