WINDMILL PILLOW
by Double Old Fashioned | Limited Edition
A kinetic meditation on movement, pattern, and cultural dialogue, the WINDMILL PILLOW is part of DOF’s Limited Edition Collection — a striking reinterpretation of the traditional windmill motif found in both American quilt blocks and South Asian textile design.
This geometric icon, long used in Amish and American patchwork traditions, symbolizes energy, transformation, and continuity. Similarly, rotational floral and starburst patterns are also echoed in South Asian embroidery, including Phulkari — where vibrant symmetry has long represented prosperity and celebration.
In this design, DOF creates a modern, abstracted take on the windmill — not as a literal form, but as a shared geometry of motion across two cultures. WIth a fully embroidered face, using contemporary Phulkari techniques, each pillow pulses with bold color and intricate craftsmanship.
The result is a textile object that honors heritage while embracing evolution — an edition made for collectors, dreamers, and lovers of meaningful design.
