About Arabelle
I moved from Cambridgeshire, England to New York City in 1982. Five years later, crafting patchwork pillows led me to designing custom-made pillows to the trade. At that time, decorative pillows were not commonly sold in stores, and workrooms prioritized making sofas over decorative pillows. Finding my niche, I elevated the art of pillow making to new levels of craftsmanship. 35 years later, I remain at the forefront of my craft and I am still as passionate about my work as the day I started my business.
I love living in New York City. It's a privilege that I take advantage of every day. You are more than welcome to see who I am, and the adventures I am up to, on my personal Instagram account @arabellenyc.
