Cushion Covers
Cushion covers are used all around the home and also shower proof for outside on the patio or garden. The fabric you choose should reflect this. Cushions used in a bedroom will not need to be as hard wearing as those used in your main lounge. A cushion that’s placed on an unused chair will not need to be as durable as one on the sofa.

Cotton are widely used in cushion manufacture and both are hard wearing and washable. They are natural fibres and therefore are good choices for people with sensitive skins. They are also cool to the touch and therefore are a good choice for summer time use. Linen can sometimes crease quite considerably, so perhaps might not be a good choice for a sofa or chair that gets a lot of use. Both cotton and linen are a good choice for outdoor use as long as they are not exposed to the elements. Beware of sun bleaching and colour fading if used extensively out side or in windows which have a lot of direct sunlight.

Tapestry are hard wearing and decorative at the same time, we have hand made lace in white and ecru (cream). A wide choice of embroidered cushion covers in many designs and colours can be found all machine washable with little to no iron required.

Think about the cushion’s use in your home. Go for durability and versatility when the cushion is to be used in high use areas. Keep finer fabric covers and highly embellished cushions for areas where their beauty can shine without being ruined too quickly
