For her human houseguests she dyes and weaves mats and the triangular cushions that we find so irresistible on a hot lazy afternoon when they inevitably end up under our sides together with a lemon ice tea. Irresistible too was the hand-grown hand-spun and hand-woven roll of cotton fabric which we simply could not leave without. Pricing such beautiful time-consuming and labour-intensive work in rural Thailand is something we have yet to learn how to do properly. The cotton looks like it can take up indigo dye beautifully and will be the perfect backing for our cushions.
