How to fill, place and live with this cushion cover
The cover is sold on its own, so pair it with the compatible Fluff cushion filler cut to the same 45 x 45 cm format. Choosing a filler at exactly the cover size, rather than under it, is what stops the corners going soft and gives the padded linen cushion the full, square shoulders you see in the photographs. A slightly generous insert works well too if you prefer a plumper look. Because the cover is separate from the filler, the fabric can be handled and freshened on its own whenever the seating gets heavy use.
Placement matters with a piece like this. Set the embroidered cushion cover where it will be seen head-on, at the centre of a three-seater or the corner of a bed, rather than half hidden behind an armrest, since the stitching is the whole point. Linen relaxes with handling, so expect the surface to soften over the first weeks; that slackening is normal in a cotton and linen blend and is not a fault. Against a Japandi interior of pale timber and off-white walls, the raised motif supplies incident without introducing a new colour.
