A cotton cushion cover cut from shirting fabric, with a ruffle along the edge and stripes that already look broken in.

Puebco makes it in green stripe or white stripe, about 17.7 inches square. The cotton shows small weaving marks and some fraying, part of the fabric's character, so it looks lived in from the first day.

For a friend's first apartment, the wedding registry, or the host who likes a house to look slightly already lived in. Or for you, for the reading chair.
