Los Angeles Hand-Guided Machine Pillow by Catstudio

From Malibu to Mickey...Watts Tower to Venice...Sunglasses to Surfing...Cadillacs on Sunset...this original design celebrates the City of Los Angeles with amazing detail!
Using vintage sewing machines (they don't build 'em like they used to) the fabric is turned this way and that way allowing the straight needle to swerve and criss-cross the many patterned play of our designs. Only specially trained artisans can handle the quick movements needed to create such masterpieces! Spelling errors guaranteed to enhance their charm and one-of-a-kind workmanship. This pillow is embroidered on an ivory linen-cotton blend cover with tied closure. Accented with black velvet piping.

LA International Airport is considered to be the third largest in the world. The Shirley Temple soda cocktail was invented in Los Angeles. Los Angeles is the most populous city in California (over 3.8 million residents). Marina Del Rey is the largest man-made marina in the United States (5,300 small-boat slips). Watts Tower was built by Italian immigrant, construction worker, artist Simon Rodia. Rodia single handedly built this masterpiece in his free time. It took him 34 years to complete (finished in 1955). Los Angeles has several common nicknames which include: City of Angels, Southland, and LalaLand. Los Angeles is east of Reno, Nevada. It is the only non-European city to have hosted the Summer Olympics twice (in 1932 and 1984).
