Frida doesn't just appear on plates and dollies, she adorns cushions too. Self taught, painted to sooth her inner demons. I love this wahine toa and never get tired of representing her through my work. Frida cushions are made to order. Made from mostly recycled and preloved materials, the cushion inners are preloved cushions, re-covered in quilted bedspreads to give them a nice firm plump feel. I then make the cover to fit the cushion exactly. Covers are made using woolen blanket, vintage cotton sheets, old doilies, scraps of cloth that might have been a tablecloth, a toaster cover, an apron or a swanky jacket in a previous life. No two are the same and are made using my own original designs. Cushion sizes vary as I make the cover to the exact size of the inner, however they usually measure approximately 45 x 45cm or thereabouts.

Colours will depend on what materials I have on hand and we can have a chat about that after you have placed your order. I have loads of options but can't guarantee a particular blanket or fabric will be available - however there is always SOMETHING delicious in the fabric stash. You will need to allow up to 14 days for your cushion to be made from the date of your order. Good things take time.....
