CUSHIONS - skinny la minx

the brilliant heather moore of skinny la minx has a couple of new cushions in her etsy shop. the design is called 'multibuck', a simple multiple of a line drawing of a little antelope. the interesting thing about this design is that the little motif is over 2000 years old, and comes from a cave painting in the cederberg region of the western cape. heather has a cartographer friend who has traced hundreds of cave drawings from this region. he kindly let her use his tracings as source material for her rockster series, of which multibuck will be just one design. see the pillows here on etsy.

Very lovely. Looks so clean and modern. I find it fascinating that it's origins are over 2000 years old. Talk about a classic design never going out of style!
