Crazy patchwork

I was really quite sad when I had to admit that my pair of much loved Indian cushions had given up the ghost back in the Spring. I'd got them second hand a decade ago and they had become too fragile for me to mend. My lovely sister-in-law made us a gorgeous hare cushion for Christmas 2024 so I really had only one space to fill. I sourced us a free one to use these past few months until I saw the right thing. For £4 in the charity shop I wasn't going to leave this utterly gorgeous crazy patchwork one behind yesterday. It's rather more subtle in real life, but the lack of light has made it look rather lairy💞💕

Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend. As ever I will keep this blog as a safe refuge from what's going on externally on the global stage. I can't control that, but I can be in charge of the content here and so it will remain a quiet breathing space for anyone who feels in need of it.

  1. Your charity shops appear to be much superior to ours. Your cushion is gorgeous as was the lovely skirt a few weeks ago. Good shopping!

  2. That is a bright and yet cozy find. My daughter's would both love that in their homes.

  4. I love that feeling of finding 'the perfect thing'. The only thing better is discovering that through the years you have been collecting things for a house that hadn't been built yet. Serendipity is lovely.
