Ready Made

Ready Made…Buy it now. We often have fabric and trim remnants, both antique and new. We use these to create pillows and other accessories. We can also make pillows to order if we know your color/design scheme. Please ask.


Pillows made from Antique Fabrics.

All of the pillows offered are newly made from antique fabrics. Some of the fabrics are very rare (18th century indigo resist) while others are more readily available (the natural linens.) The pillows are priced accordingly.

All inserts are new and from a lighter weight feather and down blend; either 50/50 or 75/25. This allows for the softness of down with the stability of feathers. Most pillows you will buy in today's market have either a polyester fill, or a very high feather content, which makes the pillows unwelcomingly heavy.

All have hidden zippers to remove the covers for cleaning. I'd suggest ONLY a light vacuuming or a very mild dry cleaning, only if absolutely necessary.
