This
month I learned that although the textile industry in the States may be
waning, the interest in fabric is not. No, not the toiles and florals
that remind you of granny. Rather, colorful textile collections in
patterns and textures that will give you (and your room) major style
points.
This
issue’s interior design story, “Swatch Watch,” shows how to decorate
with fabric art, weavings, textiles and tapestries. From posh patterns
to sexy silks, the soft quality of prints melds into many styles. Go here
to see what bold and expressive palettes are hot for 2007 and how to
use them to bolster your bedding, wall art, throw pillows and lighting.
