Because you're mine... I promise not to spill red wine on you

Occasionally, you will stumble across an item which you have to have, because it is so "you". This happens to me on a fairly regular basis, but usually with shoes, rather than soft furnishings. However, I recently spotted the most perfect cushion, combining two of my great loves: music and kitsch household objects.

It's a Johnny Cash lyric! It's on a cushion! Much joy. The only tiny catch is perhaps the price - at £65 it's a bit of a luxury item - but the good news it that it's all for a Very Good Cause.

The cushion is sold by Fine Cell Work, a "social enterprise" which teaches needlework to prison inmates. Fine Cell Work is taught by 50 volunteers for more than 400 inmates at 26 prisons. All their classes have waiting lists and there is demand for more classes at other prisons, although this can't currently be met due to funding. According to an officer at HMP Wandsworth who is quoted on the website, “Fine Cell Work gives these men dignity in work and through this, dignity in life. When a man gains self-respect he may start addressing his offending behaviour.”

Even better, you'd be supporting them twice as much if you pick up this Seasick Steve equivalent as well...
