One-of-a-kind old wool bag face was reinvented into a cushion, typical in the old days when everything was repurposed. Well-worn with visible signs of age, you can see the effort made to keep her going: hand stitching around the perimeter and several mended areas ✂.
We had fun examining this handiwork and felt awestruck with the detail. The rich deep colors combined with neutral stripes are just about perfect. Yes, the grain sack insert is lumpy and shifting, but look at the red stamps present on the fabric!
Whether you keep as-is as a piece of antique textile art, or work it into a useable cushion, the choice is yours.
