The original Please Leave By 9 cushion

Please Leave By 9 is the cushion that started it all, and still our number one bestseller. It's the polite way to tell guests the party ends early: a hand-stitched needlepoint front framed by a bold navy key-pattern border, a soft navy velvet back, and the inner cushion included. Like all our cushions it's made in the UK. Pair it with another favourite from our slogan cushions or funny cushions & gifts.

The Pillow Drop is stocked by John Lewis, Fenwick and Anthropologie, and was featured in the WSJ. Mother's Day Gift Guide. Buying it here means you're getting the original design, straight from the people who drew it.
