No matter how hot these summer days get, all the critters know that shady shelter can be found in the forest. While the grwon up ones are foraging, the littles hang out together. Raccoons, squirrels, fawn all curled up, rabbit, mouse... young turtle even joins the group. Little owl can't sleep when there's such a to-dooo going on!
This soft-sculpture Forest series Pillow is free-hand sewn on my straight-stitch industrial sewing machine, using textural techniques developed by me. It measures approximately 15" by 21" when flat, and comes with the inner cushion, made of remnants of cotton fabric and filled with cotton scraps from my cutting table. The cover is reinforced inside with thrifted cotton shirt fabric and a thrifted navy blue corduroy back, and is finished with velcro closures so the cushion stays in nicely but can be removed easily to launder.
"Made in the Shade" Pillow
Made of hand-woven and thrifted cotton: As the material is 100% preshrunk, laundering is easy, should it become necessary. Remove the inner cushion and turn the cover inside out. Machine wash warm and tumble dry on gentle, or line dry. The inner cushion can be laundered this way as well, though thorough drying is very important.
*Please keep in mind that colors vary in appearance on different screens and devices.
