Description
The Ullswater cushion brings a meadow of embroidered blooms across a soft natural cotton ground. Wildflowers, thistles and seed heads are worked in raised stitch and looped detail, sitting side by side in shades of dusky pink, ochre, plum and muted green. The tonal contrast against the oatmeal base keeps the design grounded rather than busy, so it settles happily into most rooms.
A slim raspberry-toned border frames two edges, tying the palette together and adding a neat finish to the rectangular shape. The generous 600 by 350mm size makes it a comfortable lumbar cushion for a sofa or reading chair, and the feather filling gives it plenty of give while holding its form. Because so much of the surface is hand-worked embroidery, each cushion carries small variations in texture and stitch density.
Pair it with plainer cushions in cream, clay or sage to let the floral panel lead, or group it with other botanical pieces for a layered look. It suits bedroom throws, living room seating and quiet corner chairs alike, adding colour and tactile interest without overwhelming a scheme.

Frequently Asked
What is the cushion made from?
The cover is cotton with raised embroidery worked across the front, and the pad inside is feather filled for a soft, supportive feel.
How large is the cushion?
It measures 600mm wide by 350mm high with a depth of around 150mm, making it a comfortable lumbar size for sofas and chairs.
Is the floral design printed or embroidered?
The flowers are embroidered, using a mix of flat stitch and raised looped detail, so the surface has real texture rather than a flat print.
How should I care for it?
Spot clean gently to protect the embroidery, and plump the feather pad regularly to keep its shape. Avoid machine washing the worked front.
Where does this cushion work best?
It suits a sofa, armchair or bed, and pairs well with plain cream, clay or sage cushions that let the floral panel stand out.
