[QUOTE="bluemoon, post: 195491, member: 1296"]Most likely. Since there is just one and there's wear and tear to the embroidery of the center-area, I'm thinking of making this into a cushion. I would use the area with the most embroidery (top) to form the front of a rectangular pillow and the lowest part to make the back. That sort of cushions really did exist so I think it would be a respectful update and would make this easier to sell. What do you think? The problem is what to fill it with. What were cushions filled with at that time? Or maybe this could be a piece of wall-art.[/QUOTE]
