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.

Precise geometric motifs surround two red deer in an exquisite design. From talented members of Women United for Artisan Development, this cushion cover is woven by hand on a backstrap loom. Cording defines the borders, and the back is solid black.

Should one of the threads snag, the artisans suggest you pull it back into place from the back of the fabric with a fine crochet hook.
