Bryony Gordon (7 April 2009). "Kirstie Allsopp: 'I'm too opinionated for politics' ". The Telegraph. London . Retrieved 31 December 2010. the Honourable Kirstie Allsopp (her father is the sixth Baron Hindlip)... I wonder if The Honourable Kirstie Allsopp knows that her books are, as of August 2019, 89p in ALDI? I'm going to try not to go off on too much of a rant about her privilege. I don't need to. Any of you reading this in the UK will probably have heard about #WashingMachineGate. Perhaps also the time that she suggested that chores are therapeutic for working mums, when she doesn't have to do them herself. Oh, and that time that she said girls should aspire to a flat, a nice boyfriend and a baby, not further education. Ring any bells? Snuggle down with our charming appliqué cushions featuring cute woodland animals. Each pillow is made from half a metre of tweed fabric, and the appliqué sections can be easily pieced together from small remnants left over in the sewing box 26
