Description
The Softie is a quilted cushion built around a raised grid: rows of soft, plush squares stitched into a check pattern that catches the light and reads as much by touch as by sight. The front carries this striking quilted texture in a warm cinnamon orange, with the recessed channels between the squares picking up a deeper chocolate tone, so the grid stands out against its own shadows. It measures 40 by 60cm, a generous rectangular size that works as a lumbar cushion on a sofa or as a bolster against the pillows of a bed. The whole thing is made from 100% polyester, chosen here for the springy, super-soft plush hand it gives the quilting.
A rectangular cushion of this shape does a specific job that a square one cannot. Sat lengthways on a two or three seater sofa, it fills the small of your back where a square cushion leaves a gap, and it layers well in front of larger square scatter cushions rather than competing with them. The cinnamon and chocolate pairing sits comfortably with autumnal and earthy schemes, warm neutrals and natural wood, and the textured grid brings depth to a plainer sofa or bed without adding a busy print. Turn it over and the reverse is a plain, smooth face in the same chocolate tone, so you can flip it for a quieter look.
The cushion is quilted front and back into that grid of raised squares, and closes with a zip along one edge, which means the cover can be taken off. Polyester is a hard-wearing, resilient fibre that keeps its shape and shrugs off everyday knocks and squashing, which is why it suits a cushion that gets leaned on daily. Pair it with plain-weave cushions in the same warm palette to let the quilted texture lead, or set it against a cooler neutral to make the cinnamon read brighter.

Frequently Asked
What is the cushion made of?
The cover is 100% polyester, chosen for its soft plush hand and its resilience, so it keeps its shape and springs back after being leaned on.
Can I take the cover off?
Yes. The cushion closes with a zip along one edge, so the cover can be removed from the pad when you need to.
What size is it and what does that suit?
It measures 40 by 60cm, a rectangular lumbar shape that supports the small of your back on a sofa or layers in front of square cushions on a bed.
Is the pattern on both sides?
No. The quilted grid design is on the front, while the reverse is a plain smooth face, so you can turn it for a quieter look.
What colours does it use?
The raised squares are a warm cinnamon orange and the channels between them a deeper chocolate, which reads as a warm, earthy pairing.
