Pincushions – a potted history
My Pincushion print was initially inspired by the Pincushion protea (Leucospermum Cordifolium) flower, and started out years ago as a papercut.
I started screenprinting the design onto table runners and napkins, and then included it as part of the Flower Dreams collection launched in 2012, in five fynbos-inspired colours. And now, I’m listing my Pincushion print as cushion covers too.
Find them in three colourways in our store, and online too.

pincushions just happen to be my fave flower, Heather, so this design really makes me happy! I love that your designs often originate from your papercuts…the positive/negative spaces are always so eye-catching. xo
