Pillows, Bedding & Cushions

The finishing layer, hand-sewn

Pillows, cushions and bedding are the last layer of a room, and the place where a custom detail shows the most. We sew every piece in our Waterford workroom with the same designer fabrics and trims we use for window treatments, so everything in a room can be coordinated.

Decorative pillows

Every shape
Throw pillows, lumbars and bolsters in any size.
Down and feather inserts
For a plump, luxurious pillow that holds its shape.
Couture details
Contrast welt, pieced fabrics, banding and trim from Samuel & Sons.
Coordinated with the room
Welt that matches your upholstery, fabric that echoes your draperies.
02

Bench and window seat cushions

Built-in benches, window seats and banquettes rarely fit a standard cushion. We make cushions to the exact shape of the seat, finished with welting, and layered with pillows so the window becomes the best seat in the house.

03

Bedding, table linens and upholstery

Bed skirts, shams and coordinating bedding, tablecloths in fabrics like Schuyler Samperton, and, through our network of local upholsterers, re-covered chairs and settees to complete a room.

I have worked with a number of decorators in the past and just completed my first experience with Patti. She is a delight to work with, not to mention creative, responsive, efficient and professional. Her workmanship is top notch. I especially enjoy my beautiful new pillows in the family room and my recovered dining room chairs. I highly recommend Patti and look forward to working on our next project together.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Can you match pillows to my existing furniture or draperies?

Yes. Bring a swatch, or we will see the room during your consultation, and we will find fabrics and trims that coordinate, down to a welt that matches your upholstery.

What are your pillows filled with?

We use high quality down and feather inserts for a plump pillow that holds its shape and can be fluffed back to life.
