Pretty Schumacher Embroidered Linen |
There are two bergere chairs in my client’s mostly white living room that she
would like reupholstered in a
floral with coral/salmon colored fabric. It is a rather formal room on the
Newport Beach bay. I haven’t searched for coral floral in a bit.
Throwing out some ideas…
I like the look and feel of natural linens, especially at the beach.
The above floral has more sage green.

Jeez…do I need to iron these before I show them to her?
This classic linen “Voyage to Cathay” is pretty. I’ll take some solid fabrics, too (thinking she’ll
want to recover the couches–off white linen, once she see’s how great the chairs look).
It might be nice to do some nautical accents in these. The rope cloth is a
soft indoor/outdoor from Ralph Lauren…probably too casual.
I like this Lee Jofa floral linen (most expensive, too, darn). It has pale blue
(my client’s favorite color) in it that we could pull out with a
cashmere throw blanket or an accent wall.
cashmere throw blanket or an accent wall.
And just in case the living room looks so good that we have to do the kitchen…this thick woven stripe would look great on the kitchen chairs (and it’s durable and washable indoor/outdoor).
I have other “coral florals” up my sleeve…we’ll see what happens.
Which do you like best?
Remember about the give-away here.

Beautiful! I love all of your choices! And I'm sure you'll be doing the kitchen next! It's going to look amazing!
Those are all lovely, but I like the first one…the embroidered Schumacher, best! Is it available anywhere??
Many thanks for any info,
J
beautiful choices, Mary Ann! You are amazing with fabric. I can't wait to see what you decide! Have a great week!
These fabrics are simply stunning. I love the corals and brick reds. Pretty!
They are all beautiful. There's something special about all of them. But I do love the 3rd one. The 1st picture is stunning. That fabric is a winner!
Your client is so lucky to have you!
Wishing you a blessed weekend!
Many hugs to you.

Shumacher has some best fabrics around hands down. There are a few other great companies…
I can wait to see those chairs reupholstered.

Mary Ann,
Great choices and it looks like you've covered all possibilities too. You could do a combo natural linen and a print on the same chair. That way you get the best of both. Good luck she'll love the selection.

All beautiful!! Too bad the Lee Jofa is the most expensive – it's my favorite and love the idea of pulling out the blue!!
I'll take the Lee Jofa with anything you want to put with it! The colors are divine and I am crazy for linen. It would be wonderful to see a few snaps of the mag-ready room(s)… "yes" to la cuisine also!
Bises,

I love them all, specially the Lee Jofa, I always have and of course, Shumacher! Thanks for sharing such lovelies, with such rich and beautiful colors! You're a lady of great taste, I loved seeing this. Lots of hugs! FABBY
Love the Lee Jofa. Their printed linens are fabulous!
Love the first fabric…so beautiful and dressy without being stuffy – perfect for a home on the water!!
I have so many favorites here that I don't think you could go wrong. But then again–I always love your work. Thanks for sharing!!

Woven stripe …neat.
Love that woven stripe & that it is indoor/outdoor & won't fade! I also love that Ralph Lauren rope indoor/outdoor…
So many pretty ones. I love the first, the stripe and the rope one. I may have to see if I can find the rope one. Is it expensive?
Mary Ann…since I have your blog delivered to me in my email…I have not seen your new blog design!!! So pretty. I love these fabrics…Schumacher is one of my favorite showrooms, along with Lee Jofa. Those are all beautiful.
The second grouping is my favorite, and the embroidered linen is gorgeous.
Have a great day, Mary Ann.

Love the first but think that stripe in the last picture is quite great looking and could work for a home near the coast, some of the others while I love them feel very formal, very traditional and I am sure you want some reflection of being near the coast, right? Good luck, there is n't a bad one in the bunch…all beautiful and what rich warm colors.
Beautiful fabrics! Voyage to Cathay is always a good one, but then I also love the coral spray underneath it. That would look beautiful in a beachhouse. Can't wait to see what she chooses. Thanks for sharing.
Definitely the Lee Jofa on the back of the chair — I love green and it has the prettiest shade of green with that lovely coral. Funny, I usually lean toward the most expensive things … go figure.
They are all gorgeous. My favorite isn't important. Your client will make a great decision, with the fabulous selections you have for her.
The fabrics in the 3rd pic are my favourites. Love the combination of them. Good luck. x Sharon
Oh the first one and the floral with more sage green looks fabulous ♥
The first photo with the three fabrics is my favorite if she wants formal. I love that whole color palette and always have. Salmony coral is a color I always seem to gravitate to. 🙂
Last fabric bottom left and 3rd from bottom on left , GORGEOUS!
