Fair Isle Pillows
The designer drew inspiration for these brightly colored, multi-patterned pillows from embroidered motifs on the richly decorated textiles from the Kutch region of India. She uses a crisp cotton yarn in colors of eggplant, sage, and fresh chiles. The buttons are used for closure, but they also form a prominent part of the design, adding more spark to these already lavish pillows.
