As anyone who knows me knows.....I live for pillows!!!! Pillows have always been my absolutely favorite accessory. My bed overflows with them and my living room is a temple to them! There can never be too many of them!
A number of decades ago I begged to be the pillow buyer at Bloomingdales but, that was never to be! A million years have now passed and I have finally created my own collection of pillows!!! I spent two years putting together a brightly colored and highly patterned selection of vintage Indian textiles & quilts and have made pillows from these unique pieces of cloth.
This past weekend I showed my pillows at the East Hampton Antique Show, where they seem to be very well received! But, what made it even more exciting for me was to have the opportunity to show them to Barbara D'Arcy, a legend in the interior design world. Ms. D'Arcy was the high priestess of the home department of Bloomingdales in the 60's, 70's, and 80's. She invented the "model room" and made the store the "temple" of interior design that it was. And guess what......she loved my pillows!!!! I could have had no better affirmation than her delight in my colors and patterns.......after all, it is she who was my idol!!!!! So thank you Ms. D'Arcy....I can't tell you how long i have waited for your praise!!!
