Boat Sail Pillow - Red Sails Maker

Add a playful touch to your home decor with this unique pillow created by D. Bozak. Each pillow is crafted from a used boat sail—in many cases retaining the original seams, pockets, grommets, and other features—with an appliquéd design. An overlap closure on the back allows you to remove the included feather insert. All sails are thoroughly laundered by the creator; any remaining marks add character and speak to the handmade and upcycled nature of the piece.

This pillow has two red appliqués, evocative of sails on the front. The seams shown on the face are all original to the sail from which the pillow was made. On the lower right, you’ll find the sailmaker’s mark: “Fred E. Hood, Sailmaker, Marblehead, Mass.” It is 18” square and has a 20” square feather insert for an overstuffed look. Cover is machine washable.
