About Penelope At Home

Penelope At Home

Cushions! Fabulous quality, Romantic and Witty, Vintage and Midcentury Fabrics.

Penelope was the ultimate homemaker. Faithfully stitching by day and unravelling at night while waiting for her husband to return home as she warded off would be paramours. I think I have always been aware of the needlewoman legacy in my name and if I can create by sewing I will. My home is filled with my sewing work and my head is frilled with literature and writing. So I combine them both, Shakespearean quotes on black velvet, song lyrics on distressed french linen and velvet or just one of my favourite words - LOVE, SERENDIPITY, PEACE, CHERISH. Feminine cushions with double linen frills. Perfect for a bedroom. One word on a signature cushion to place as a reminder. And I am always on the look out for a fun and witty saying to embroider on a cushion like MURDER YES. DIVORCE/? NEVER! or I MAY NOT BE A GREAT EXAMPLE BUT I AM AN EXCELLENT WARNING! And embroidered cushions for a wedding gift. . . MARRIAGE SHOULD BE A CONTEST OF GENEROSITY.
Maybe you have one of your own?
And then there are the Midcentury cushions all made with genuine recycled fabric from the 50s, 60s and 70s from my own collection. These are finished with the traditional bobble fringe which has become so fashionable again.
