Pillows are to interior spaces as jewelry is to an outfit. When adding accessories like pillows to your mix, you can't go wrong when using natural fibers like cotton, linen, hemp, or wool. So for your next project try a hand woven natural fiber fabric or two. Photo: Elizabeth Pappas Fabric: Vintage Yao Hill Tribe hemp textile from Morrissey Fabric Etsy shop.
