Artistic Handmade Pillows

Vintage garments are repurposed into colorful handmade pillows.

A global network of artisans and designers work together to create unique handmade pillows, coverlets, throws and more for The Loaded Trunk.  The pillow above, featuring cross-stitching and indigo block printing, was recycled from vintage garments once worn by Hmong women in Vietnam.

Deconstructed vintage sarongs are remade into exquisite batik pillows. The fabric is extremely soft, and the dyes have aged to perfection.

Hand-embroidered pillows by Otomi Indians feature traditional Mexican floral and animal motifs.  Designs are sewn using naturally dyed threads onto cotton background.  Both front and back are decorated.  All of these one-of-a-kind pillows include a feather down insert.  A great start to feathering your nest this spring.
