Maggie Check Rectangular Cushion
Hollie Ward
£280
Created exclusively for The New Craftsmen, Maggie Check Rectangular Cushion by Hollie Ward fuses modern aesthetics with traditional craftsmanship. Block indigo and fringed tartan give this decorative cushion a punkish edge.
Inspired by her exploration of sustainable materials and sense of place, Hollie created this collection with a particular focus on longevity, in the hope these pieces will be passed down through generations to be repaired, cherished and loved. The playful fabric and signature fringed seams were created using Shetland wool and surplus stock cotton.

Process
From start to finish, Hollie produces no waste and uses no electricity. Using British wool – reared and spun in Shetland – the fabric is expertly woven on an eight-shaft jack loom. Finally, each piece is sewn together by hand using leftover yarns from the warp to ensure nothing is wasted.
Based in South East London, Hollie Ward creates one-off pieces handwoven from surplus yarn, as well as British and Icelandic wool. Having recently graduated with a First Class BA (hons) in Textile Crafts, specialising in woven fabrics, Hollie's first interiors collection has been developed exclusively for The New Craftsmen. Hollie draws inspiration from fabrics woven with history, and incorporates experimental elements into her work.
