I think I have a fabric problem. Every time I go to the store I come home with yards and yards of pretty fabric I think could possibly be a future project. Nothing specific in mind, just bolts of fabric to collect dust somewhere.
Like these two pretty things I came home with on Sunday
Now that I see them together on the chair, I'm kinda liking the color combo...maybe, just a little bit, who knows.
Since this chair is moving into my bedroom- maybe a headboard out of that patterned fabric would be a pretty change to my Kelly Green...hmmm now I have my brain working overtime.

gee what an interesting blog you have,,,
Fun pattern. I love it! I have the same problem. I'm always dragging things home for future, not even thought of projects!
I see a slipcover in your near future! Don't worry...if this is a problem, we ALL have it! I do love that pattern!
I do the same thing! I love the fabric you found too.
Loving the fabric. Don't do what I do, roll it up and stick it in the closet for one day.
Love the fabric. I also love to see bolts of fabric in a desk or in a basket in someone's room. All the different colors make me think it's justified to buy tons of yardage that I haven't quite found the project for (right?)
i have boxes of fabric waiting to be used!
I have the same problem. too much fabric and nowhere for it to go. I would have left with those too:)
Loving that geometric print!
Great patterns. Too much of a good thing is wonderul- I say keep up the good work.
I do the same thing with fabric. I am the worst. My husband will die if I bring home one more bolt.
That orange fretwork fabric would look killer on a headboard. I say go for it.
I am completely jealous... I can't ever find fabrics I like in real life. The ones I think I may like or may work are all "to the trade". Grr...
Love that pattern. Can't wait to see what you do with it. I agree, I tend to bring home things without a clue on where I will use them.
Looking forward to tomorrow night! I already need a glass of sangria and it's Tuesday!
Been there..done that..a lot!
Just think..you can redecorate anytime you get the urge and it will cost less and less every time ;)
where did you go? I like
I think that fabric would make a gorgeous headboard. Add some dark brown or navy and it would be gorgeous!
I likely! Especially the trellis-y looking one.
Try working at a fabric store for the last 10 years, with a really good discount!
Great fabrics! I especially love the patterned one. I have almost the same pattern wallpapered on our bedroom ceiling (in a beigy white), and it looks fabulous. If you're interested in seeing what it ended up looking like, i did a blog post about it this winter. :)
I have a fabric problem too - but it's a good problem isn't it!
Where did you find this?? I have such a hard time finding beautiful fabrics!
Devon, yes I justified it for that reason too :)
Eleanor I found it at the fabric store Sewfisticated in Somerville MA- its in the Twin City Plaza if you are familiar with that. I love it there and always come home with something.
i think that's a duralee fabric..i have it in a bunch of colorways in my office- do u need more?? xoxoxoxo
