Do these fabrics coordinate?

17 years ago

I'm opening a can of worms here since I already hung the linen jacquard romans and I can't return the seafoam and linen/bronze drapes I want to hang over them. But I'm wondering, since I just bought this dark green (pattern?) upholstery fabric, could I use it to make new seat cushions since the floral ones don't work in this room?

Room (Antique Jade on back wall, other walls are lighter Thornton Sage even though they look blue on the screen).

Thanks!

    They look like a good compliment to me :) But shouldn't you be staining some trim? :oP KIDDING LOL

    Hey, the trim in the room is finished (except for the door casing)! :-) You noticed the clever use of old photo in that last shot, and framing of the chair photo to avoid all the trim stacked on either side of the table?

    I still can't sand and poly with this cough and drip. I'll sand/stain/finish the kitchen trim when I'm feeling better and DD isn't popping in on me every 2 minutes wanting something to eat or to ask me a question. Right now garage is about 80 degrees (going to be 93 today) so I'm *still* stuck in the bathroom for small stuff anyway until the weather is more reasonable.

    I told DH to call last night but nobody home - 1 hr difference doesn't help. So I don't know what's going to happen, but I'm trying to get easy (non-dusty!) things in order for the visit - figure I could hang some pictures or the lights, though I won't make seat cushions/covers b4 the SILs get here.

    I am getting more things cleaned out - as as soon as MotoPhoto has a digital file of the photo, great-grandma and her heavy wood frame are going to be shipped to SC, gets one more huge box out of my BR.

    Hey, igloochic, here's photo of great-grandma. I'm going to mail her out as soon as the weather cools down so it doesn't stick to the glass. Trying to clear out the closets - hauled out Rembrandt and the 80's pastel print I had stored in DD's closet. Check out the other thread - still trying to figure out where (IF, in the case of the landscape) to hang them.

    I'm confused as I don't see the window treatments so can't comment on the table and chair covers. Do you have a photo of the window coverings?

    Right now looking at the two dark greens next to each other, I don't care for them. It could be the monitor but those greens do not look like the same green family as the walls.

    BTW, I do love your rug. Very pretty.

    Can I have great grandma? She would be fabulous on my family wall!! (We claim anyone cool looking on that wall LOL)

    Brutuses - did you mean the patterned dark green and the plain dark green (tablecloth)? Or the patterned dark green that I'm thinking of for chair cushions and the dark green rug?

    Here are the WTs (no panels up yet, but I stuck a valance that I may or may not use over the shades a few months ago and took this pic). The linen colored strip and the lighter green strip in the picture with the dark greens are from the WTs - not sure if the strip packaged with the valance was supposed to be a holdback, but I only have 1 per valance/window.

    As far as wall color, the seafoam does go with the walls IRL, for some reason my walls always look blue in pics. I could get rid of the tablecloth if you like the fabric on the chair.

    igloochic - I meant I was sending her to my great-aunt so I could get the huge box with heavy wooden frame out of my MBR. Not sending her to you LOL! (Though if you really want to claim her as an ancestor I supposed you could print her out and hang her - does that mean I get visitation rights LOL?)
