C is for CUSHION

DSC_0007

Cushions have been the theme of the week here - firstly a couple that I ran up myself for the new-to-me sewing chair. These fabrics started life off as 1970s placemats (they were new when I was little) which were calling out for a new lease of life. And what better way than to be coupled with a vintage soulmate from the same era?

And then there were these :: lovely retro barkcloth offerings from H is for Home. What can I say? I love them. All of them. All lined up looking glorious and posh.

You can tell the children aren't allowed to touch these right?

  5. I love barkcloth cushions and have a few myself. In fact I have far too many cushions in my house, I just keep buying/making them. Lovely blog and lovely chair. x

  6. Yes! Well, it is *a* couch - I didn't find the vintage one I was harking after so caved in, saved up and bought new :)

    I went through a stage of having cushions everywhere - couldn't move for them. Now I'm trying to be very good and keep it minimal...

  10. Back again to stare at your couch. So where did you get that beauty?
    Not that I need to buy a new couch, just so I can know for future reference.
