Description
The Connie cushion is a 45 x 45cm square with a vertical stripe running across a natural, oatmeal-toned ground, and a soft frilled trim gathered all the way round the edge. The stripes are a deep moss green, spaced out across a linen-look weave that carries the flecked, slightly uneven texture you would expect from a natural fibre. The stripe prints on both sides, so there is no wrong way to sit it on a chair, and the ruffled border gives the whole thing a relaxed, gathered edge rather than a hard piped one.
This is a cushion for a room that leans towards the softer, cottage-style end of things. It sits happily on an armchair, at the head of a bed, or grouped along a sofa with plainer cushions to let the stripe do the talking. The neutral ground and green stripe are easy to build a scheme around, so it works alongside a plain green ruffled cushion, a checked throw, or simply against a pale sofa where the frill catches the light. Because the pattern is the same front and back, you can plump and turn it without thinking about which face shows.
The cover is an 85% polyester, 15% linen blend, which gives it the look and hand of linen while the higher polyester content keeps it hard-wearing and resistant to creasing for everyday use. A concealed zip runs along one edge, so the cover comes off easily for washing and the closure stays out of sight. The frilled trim is part of the cover itself, gathered and stitched around the border. If you like the ruffled look, there is a plain moss-green version of the same style to pair it with for a layered, tonal arrangement.

Frequently Asked
What is the cushion cover made from?
The cover is a blend of 85% polyester and 15% linen, which gives you a linen-look texture with the durability and crease resistance of a higher polyester content.
Does the cover come off for washing?
Yes. There is a concealed zip along one edge, so you can slip the cover off easily and the fastening stays hidden when the cushion is in use.
Is the stripe printed on both sides?
It is. The stripe prints front and back, so you can turn and plump the cushion without worrying about which face is showing.
How big is the cushion?
It is a 45 by 45cm square, a standard size that suits an armchair, the head of a bed, or a group along a sofa.
What is the frilled edge like?
The trim is a soft, gathered ruffle stitched around the whole border, giving a relaxed cottage-style finish rather than a flat piped edge.
