Help me find cushions (not Christmas related)

DH hates cushions ... But i need them for my back. Current cushions are past their best, but can't find anything we both like. (DH has a much narrower taste than I do, which is restrictive... But then I almost always like what he does. Suite is dark brown leather. Carpet is a dark rust. Curtains are kind of tapestry looking (rather than silky), a dark gold with rust woven in. Walls are neutral. Current cushions are cream with very thin dark brown wiggly lines running through to pick out the suite, but predominately cream. DH says (6 years on) that he feels the cream is too much of a contrast and would prefer something a similar colour to the suite. Have searched and searched high street and Internet and can't find anything. Have rambled on a bit there... Sorry... But any search help appreciated.

You might just be better off just looking for material in a local market and sewing new covers yourself.

The insides you can get from almost everywhere.

Dunelm and Ikea have lots of lovely cushions

Dunelm do have lots - and lots - of lovely cushions, but none that are the colour we are looking for. Not tried IKEA, will look but perhaps a bit modern - will check. Am almost at the point of making them myself, but that will have to wait until the new year and was hoping to have them in time for pre-Christmas activities and I don't have time to make them anytime soon. I know there are lots and lots of places with nice cushions, have trawled and trawled but can't find any that are predominantly dark brown and not furry or velvet or tasseled. (I can see lots in creams etc which I like but DH doesn't )
