Our patchwork leather pillows and stripe designs celebrate sustainability and storytelling — transforming rescued fabrics and heirloom materials into modern heirlooms
This Mother's Day, I embarked on a entirely personal endeavor, fashioning bespoke patchwork stripe pillows that pay tribute to the exceptional women who have shaped the tapestry of my family's history. Drawing on the rich fabric of our shared experiences, I carefully selected materials that once graced the wardrobes of these influential figures. With a bittersweet pang, I let go of cherished garments, each carrying its own treasured memories, yet their transformation into these meaningful pillows was a heartfelt celebration of their enduring legacy within our lives.

Every intricate stitch was a testament to the love and dedication that went into preserving these fragments of the past. As the delicate threads intertwined, a patchwork narrative emerged, intertwining the stories of generations past with the present. The process, though emotionally challenging, was an act of profound reverence, a way to integrate the essence of these remarkable women into the fabric of our daily lives. Through these meticulously crafted patchwork stripe pillows, their spirit continues to infuse our living spaces with a sense of heritage and timeless beauty, serving as a daily reminder of the deep-rooted significance of their enduring influence.
