Autumn being extremely autumnally and delicious 🍂

The 'Autumn Love' silk cushion

Any of my silk cushions can be pre- ordered on my website. Each one is made by hand in Britain, which takes about two weeks, then wrapped up by me and posted to you. As a small one woman business with so many designs, I can't hold every one in immediate stock, so each cushion is made just for you.

With just ten days to go until we launch The Creativity Issue, I thought I’d share a little behind the scenes of what we’ve been working on.

I first met @silkenfavours at a lunch in Somerset last year. I remember walking into a room full of people and quietly praying I’d be sat next to someone I knew. I wasn’t, but I did end up next to Vicki, and I can’t help feeling there was a reason for that. We connected instantly, and now, here we are, creating a collection together.

Inspired by nature and Vicki’s love of the ’70s, the collection is fun, fringed and I can’t wait to share it with you. by @silkenfavours

Places I've been and never stopped thinking about 🌿
Charleston in East Sussex the former home of Vanessa Bell and Duncan Grant. I visited a few years ago and left wanting to come home and paint every fireplace and every wall. I never quite got round to it but hopefully one day.
If you haven't been, I highly recommend a visit, the gardens, patterns and colours were so inspiring.

The passion flower 🌸
One of my favourite plants to draw, so intricate and otherworldly. I've used my passion flower illustrations across a few pieces the skinny green silk scarf, the patchwork blue and pink scarves, and the silk eye masks which are actually made from offcuts of the green scarf.
We had a beautiful passion flower climbing over a trellis in our garden until it sadly decided to die so... ..If I can't have it in the garden, at least I can wear it round my neck.

My lifelong love of drawings cats 🐈 🐆
When I was young I had two cats called Calvin and Klein because I was completely obsessed with CK One perfume like every teenager in the 90s. It turned out I was allergic to them, not the perfume, but I soldiered on with red eyes and a runny nose because I loved them far too much to give them up.
Later at Chelsea College of Arts my final degree piece was the Catavan a 1960s caravan I bought on eBay for very little and completely took over with cats. Cat wallpaper, cat flooring, cat curtains, cat cushions, a cat dress, I was the cat! I then toured it round festivals that summer. It was gloriously silly and one of my favourite summers.
Big cats have always been just as irresistible to draw there's something about their majestic faces that I find endlessly captivating.
Here are some of my cat pieces, big and small, old and new all hand drawn with love, care and a touch of mad obsession!

The reason I'm addicted to instagram competitions is because I won our kitchen 🙌✨@harveyjoneskitchens
