Discovered via Design Skool: the work of UK artist Emily Mackey of Maxemilia. We are inexplicably drawn to her What's Under Your Pillow series, made from fair trade organic 200 count cotton and featuring machine-embroidered designs on the reverse side (a jeweled dagger, an open book, a spider). To see more, go to Maxemilia.
