A sequence of colorful patterns bring vibrant artistry to these cushion covers. From UMBVS Desert Weavers of India, they are woven on a traditional loom of quality cotton. The red covers feature a slit opening for cushions. The back does not repeat the patterns on the front.

Made by an artisan group of weavers in Chimaltenango, Guatemala, this dark blue cushion cover is a high quality textile made with a foot loom. The artisans are very interested and passionate about the preservation of the use of the foot loom to make textiles; another goal of theirs is to educate more women in this art and process, as historically the foot loom has been used mostly by men. This dark blue cushion cover features the same design on the front as on the back: thin looped lines in different shades of blue and gray. The back of the cushion has slit in which to insert the cushion.

Meaning "blade" or "dagger," parang motifs are a traditional Indonesian design originally reserved for royalty. Promoting quality of life for its artisans, Java's Yayasan Usaha Mulia (YUM) presents this pair of cushion covers, crafted from cotton. Intricate parang motifs in crimson and ivory are added using the batik method, where a wax resist is stamped onto the fabric before it is treated with dye. Each cover opens with a zipper for inserting a cushion.

Miriam and Debora are designers who saw the potential that traditional weavers had in making quality products, but decided that the designs needed updating. One result is this 100% cotton hand woven throw pillow case with a streamlined version of a traditional geometric motif.
