Tag "cushions"
maybe because we live down in the bay that we are a bit out of touch and slow on the uptake but last night i saw these cushions made by ask alice and was stopped in my tracks. i really fancy these crocheted cushions. i really admire the detail, especially the hand stitched type, very nice.

I printed this design on some nice lightweight hemp fabric we had lying aound the store. I thought black would be nice and after printing decided that a couple of cushions could be choice and here we have the result that i’m pretty happy with. I then started pondering whether i should do some more items like this and decided that yes i should. I had a think about branding – apparently i need to have a brand and one that stuck is Aroha&Friends. So there you have it, the humble beginnings of a little product range from Aroha&Friends. Sweet. Now i just have to come up with the rest of the collection.
