Edinburgh-based textile artist and designer Louise Bennetts has designed and stitched a collection of cushions exclusively for Bard. 

These cushions were made by salvaging loom tape, preserving the messy edge left by industrial weaving. It is typically trimmed off before the cloth is rolled and sold to the garment industry. Louise has taken these long, messy centipedes and sewed them to a wool back cloth before boiling them to re-introduce structure to the fibres. The resulting textile becomes something closer to felt, and we love it for the fact that it feels like its sheepy origins. Here, Louise has stitched the boiled wool selvedge into panels and stone shapes, on black and porridge wool back cloth.
