At the start of winter I became a proud supplier of the beautiful Windermere Mohair Throws! ✨

These high quality throws are woven in NZ from high quality, incredibly soft and light NZ mohair—an amazing fibre from the Angora goat. Inherently resistant to stretching or sagging, mohair rarely pills and is exceptionally strong - these are lifetime pieces.

From a design angle, throws are an awesome way to build up a colour story in your space, or to simply complement your favourite Cushion Couturier cushion!

There's a colour swatch in the shop of more than 30 gorgeous colours that are available, so you can choose the perfect hue for you in one of two sizes, the generous knee blanket or a full size throw.

They also make a special gift, and if you're not sure on what colour to choose for someone - no problem! I can pop a gift exchange card in the parcel for you - and of course wrap it beautifully too. 🎁

In case you need convincing, here are five reasons to love vintage—one of my favourite fabric categories!

I love these textiles for their interesting colour palettes, iconic patterns, the sense of history, the story telling around their provenance and the feel good factor of reusing exisiting materials… the list goes on!

If vintage is your vibe, visit my bright and beautiful website where you can check out my current stock of vintage gems.

One of my favorite fabric categories to work with is vintage!

I love learning about the stories behind these gems and imagining the lives they’ve lived. So often these gorgeous textiles are attached to a certain time, place or person, making them particularly special. I've found fabrics that are a hundred years old, carefully stored, in amazing condition and perfectly robust for using on cushions in a busy household.

I often select vintage fabrics for the store; commonly barkcloth, linen, and cotton like this cool 1970's geometric tile pictured. There's so much personality in vintage textiles, they add immediate character and soul to a room and often evoke memories - every day I have customers come into the store that will point out fabrics that do just that for them.

I'm just loving the swing back towards collected interiors, where things don't have to match and each piece is carefully chosen, making up the story of the people that live there.

Who will add this design to their story I wonder?

This new range of hard-wearing and incredibly vibrant Persian-inspired velvets has been a hit with my gorgeous customers ✨

Just about every time I finish sewing one of these beauties, it wanders straight out the door to brighten another lovely home!

Here I'm holding the Shiraz cushion, featuring oval medallions that create an amazing visual texture in punchy orange, olive green and aqua.

This fabric is where all the cushion magic began! ✨

About 4 years ago on a winter’s day much like today, Phil stopped to watch me making some cushions for our sofa and casually suggested, “You should make a few hunt themed cushions”.

Phil (my self-appointed head of R&D) has been photographing the South Island hunt community for over 25 years, and he was adamant there was a market for cushions featuring hunt scenes.

I was really enjoying making cushions so thought 'why not!" and ordered some meterage of the classic Sanderson Tally Ho linen, plus found some vintage barkcloths and set to making a set of cushions.

Phil lugged a trestle table full of hunt themed cushions to the hunts, started spruiking and blow me down, he was right!

It's hard to believe it's only 4 short years since that seed was sown. Fast forward to now and I've completely redirected my design business, built a beautiful e-commerce cushion store and and I’m happily sewing away all manor of cushions, from horses to dragons, florals and stripes, in my gorgeous brick and mortar on Rutland Street in Ōtautahi Christchurch.

What a beautiful adventure it has been so far!

I’ve been busy working away behind the scenes to make my custom cushion service easier to follow on my website, so we took the opportunity to capture the process in a bit more detail.
