Q: What’s your design process?

L et’s just say…I spend many hours rummaging through grandma’s closets. The reality is that it’s a constant hunt, takes a keen eye and plenty of patience to find such charming and interesting textile candidates. It takes artistic vision and creativity…which have been an addiction for me. I look at a vintage fabric that is torn or stained and generally has been ignored for far too long…. I often see the potential of repurposing it into a new high-end pillow design that incorporates modern complimentary textiles and design ideas. Each creation is individual, personal and extremely rewarding.

Q: Will My Vintage Pillow stand up to normal wear and tear?

A bsolutely yes! Whether it be a 100 year old French tapestry or a hand knitted Bolivian Shawl, the vintage textiles are reinforced by bonding them to a light weight modern cotton backing. This adds much support and stability and they easily stand up to normal wear and tear.
