You may remember this Kathryn Ireland fabric.
I blogged about it here. I was going to use for it pillows in my living room. I chickened out. It was crazy expensive.
Then, back in Septemebr, I saw this fabric when I was looking around on Etsy. Loved the fabric, but couldn't find any info on it. And yes, I blogged about it. Here. Well, this weekend while looking on Ebay for something totally different, what should I spy but this exact peacock fabric. It has my blues and greens and yellows. It is traditional, but whimsical. I bought it. Two and half yards. Enough for 3 pillows, if I am careful. I am so excited. Please cross your fingers that the colors work. Do you like it? Does it make you happy?

ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing the pillows in your space! The fabric is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI think it will be gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI love the blues/greens in the textile. What kind of trim or welt are you going to do? Looking forward to seeing the finished product!
ReplyDeleteLove it! Can't wait to see the pillows!
ReplyDeleteLove your blog, too!
Love the new fabric you bought, you can get more pillow for your $ if you use the fabric on one side and use a solid colour on the other with a wonderful cord or fringe welting between them...always have them made with a zipper so you can pull out the insert (use down insert for the best looking and useful pillows) and dryclean the pillow...
ReplyDeleteI am LOVING that peacock fabric! If it was a man, I'd marry it.
ReplyDeleteVery cool! I'm looking forward to seeing the pillows!! :D
ReplyDeleteMakes me happy! You have to post the cushions when complete. I once spent a fortune on fabric, then decided I could never live with it. Ugh. Lesson learned.
ReplyDeleteyes happy!
ReplyDeleteSissy, this makes me very happy, and it emcompasses ALL your colors!!! Cannot wait to see the cushions when they are done! What's the story with painting your wall blue--did you decide? Inquiring minds want to know!
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely print! Have a sweet day!
ReplyDeleteI do like it and I really don't think you have to spend a fortune on fabric or pillows!

Yes, makes me very happy - do use a solid for the back or another stripe or check - that way when your or my rather add kicks in, you can instantly switcheroo!
