‘COMING HOME’ THROW

Re-igniting her passion for being connected to Culture and Country while learning more about her mob; Kalkadoon woman & Five Hearts owner, Steph, explored the powerful way in which her ancestors used art in story telling to tell her own story, hence this aptly named design, 'Coming Home'. 

- A combination of warm pink tones, yellows and earthy colours

- Reversible (shades of blues, purples and greens)

- A beautiful thick weave with the added detail of a dusty pink fringing sewn on

The story behind my design...

This throw design started as a re-connection back to myself, my culture and my ancestors which I explored through painting on a large canvas, creating each stroke and each individual dot while laying on the floor of my home, over many weeks. It tells the story of my family back in my home town on Kalkadoon Country ('Emu Foot Province'), my husbands family in a separate town and our journey over mountains and along waterways to come together and create our own little mob of five. My great-grandmother, the strong Indigenous matriarch of my family and the most amazing person I've ever known, is represented with one star and the greatly missed and loving father of my husband, Chris' dad, is represented with the second star.
