Recently a reader sent me an inquiry about a fabric application. In a past blog post, I had used the fabric in question on pillows in a client's sun room. She asked if the pattern was too much for curtain panels. This is an easy one. The fabric pattern is Lilith from Robert Allen. It comes in six color ways. Here are the four I like the best.
Here is the pillow I did for my client. It is in the color Summer. Looks so much better in a professional photo.
I absolutely think you can do curtains in this fabric. I would limit additional patterns, layer various textures in the other furnishings, and keep the space edited. Here is an example of some pinch pleat panels in Lilith Summer.
I say go for it. I think it will be fun!
I love the fabric. I have always been one that uses busy fabric for curtains. I agree with you .... she should go for it!!

Hi Kristin- I am currently studying ID in the Seattle area. Found your blog and love it! Would you mind telling me what program you used to create these mocked up curtains? Thanks!

Hey Kristin, great name BTW and spelled right too. I use Minutes Matter software. I highly recommend it. It is invaluable to our interior design business. I use it for space plans and elevation renderings too.
