One of my favorite fabric categories to work with is vintage!
I love learning about the stories behind these gems and imagining the lives they’ve lived. So often these gorgeous textiles are attached to a certain time, place or person, making them particularly special. I've found fabrics that are a hundred years old, carefully stored, in amazing condition and perfectly robust for using on cushions in a busy household.
I often select vintage fabrics for the store; commonly barkcloth, linen, and cotton like this cool 1970's geometric tile pictured. There's so much personality in vintage textiles, they add immediate character and soul to a room and often evoke memories - every day I have customers come into the store that will point out fabrics that do just that for them.
I'm just loving the swing back towards collected interiors, where things don't have to match and each piece is carefully chosen, making up the story of the people that live there.
Who will add this design to their story I wonder?
