Next time you’re strolling through the Central West End, visit Richardson’s new location, above The Silver Lady. The designer’s love affair with vintage furniture and accessories is on grand display there: He juxtaposes religious figurines with contemporary art and handmade textiles. A collection of decorative throw pillows, which Richardson calls V.I.P.s (Very Important Pillows), are made by hand with such materials as antique needlework and ethnic textiles that he sources himself. 4738 McPherson 314-401-1333 dkrinteriors.com

Cut from the Same Cloth

“Turkey Tracks” is a 19th-century quiltmaking pattern that has the appearance of little wandering feet. Patterns like the tracks, and their traditions and myths, have been passed down through the generations, from their frontier beginnings to today, where a generation of makers has embraced the material as a means of creating something new. Olivia Jondle is one such designer. Here, she’s taken an early turkey track-pattern quilt, cut it into various shapes, and stitched the pieces together, adding calico and other fabric remnants as needed. The result is a trench coat she calls the Pale Calico Coat. Her designs are for sale at The Rusty Bolt, Jondle’s small-batch fashion company based in St. Louis. —SAMANTHA STEVENSON
