Cushions!

I'm very excited to announce that I'm going to be doing the Melbourne Design Market this year! Alongside Bianca and some other talented folk, I'm going to have a selection of products available on the Bamakko stand, which I will be helping to man on the day. I've never done a market before, so this will certainly be jumping in the deep end!

As a result, I've been focusing on some product development. Next in line - cushions! I really like how the houses & bicycles print looks on them - very whimsical and apt for a kids room or any other cute, colourful spot in the house. I've popped a few up in my shop to see how they go:


Houses & Bicycles cushion in Orange (softie by One Red Robin)


Houses & Bicycles cushion in Robins Egg


Houses & Bicycles cushion in Teal

I'm only selling the covers for now as the inserts are a waste of postage, but plan to get some nice feather & foam inserts for market day :)

I love the idea of cushion covers with that fabric! Good luck with the market.

That print is such a stunner, Lara. I keep looking at my piece and thinking it's almost too good to cut up.

All the best at the design market!!

Very pretty. Now you can see that the scale you chose is just right!

Wow, these cushions are amazing and beautiful. Your fabric looks great in large pieces. I'd be sad to cut into it to make a quilt!
